Have you tried a google search? youcan also try some of the restoration sites on the web. One that comes to mind is "olive drab". If anyone can get you what your after its the restorere gang.

You have one other option I once got information direct from FORD. They have an archive that might just have what your looking for. OR as Chrysler is the copyright owner of the JEEP name their Corparate archives might have what you need.

Hi manfred,

I have seen a ready made 3D model of a Willy's Jeep here. If you are interested, take a look here:
Models

Some addnl references:
1944 Willys MB Restored
Jeepguy
Jeep Drawings - This contains a 3 view gif of a Jeep.
Jeep Page Links
French Jeep Site

Hope these links help. I had myself hunted the Web about 4-5 months back for a Jeep diagrams. However, didn't have any time to finish my Rhino 3D model, so I gave up..

Hey, one more thing.. I have a Willy's Jeep Kit by Testors. Can scan the plans for you if you want. It has a 3 view diag of a Jeep!

BTW, which 3D proggie are you using? I am familiar with Max, LW and Rhinoceros.

More laterz..
BP.
