About Us
As military vehicle enthusiasts since 1988, we have been interested in restoring, owning and enjoying vintage Jeep, but also other vintage vehicles, such as the 1942 Model F30 truck, produced under contract with the Ford Motor Company of Canada with the term CMP (Canadian Military Pattern) and also the 1946 Chevrolet AK Series Light Truck styling, with production beginning in 1941 until 1947 also known as the ‘Art Deco’ truck.
Since then, we have been acknowledging and improving mechanical skills, complemented by a degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Over the years we have completed restored more than 50 Jeep vehicles, and nowadays we have a collection of original American WWII vehicles, Willys MB 06/44, Ford GPW 42, Trailer Bantan T3, F30 truck 42, and post war military vehicles, CJ5, M38A1, Chevrolet AK Series 46 and others, maintaining the memory of WWII Militaria as a piece of our collective history.
At the same time as a fascinating and enjoyable hobby, we also have been collecting used and new old stock military wartime Jeep parts and militaria historical pieces, benefitting of our extensive knowledge and experience in the world of military vehicles.
We have also the experience in building from scratch, military vintage camper trailers, from the Teardrop Willys Trailer, inspired and built according to the specifications of the original trailers that were constructed with parts obtained from WWII surplus materials, in a overland version, that was built to look like a WWII Military Jeep.
We´ve meet other owners and joined affectionate clubs that became our partners, such as Associação Portuguesa de Veículos Militares, ACP – Classicos, G503.com among others.
We have also been participating in national and international militaria exhibitions and festivals in Europe (D-Day Commemorations in Normandy, France – War and Peace Revival in Kent, UK – Ciney Militaria in Belgium – Militaria alla Torre, Bolonha, Italy) and small specialists fairs also in Portugal.
Our projects aim to ensure perfection and detail, up until the last nut and bolt, and we are glad to have the opportunity to preserve and restore American and WWII history for future generations, so many times, left untouched for more than seventy years, with the certainly that there are still vehicles, trailers, historical pieces, waiting to be discovered.
