Hi, many years ago, as a matter of fact it was in the late forties, I traded a guy in Germany for a small die cast Jeep. It fit in the palm of my hand and was very precise. The front seat back rests and the windshield folded. Underneath the drive shafts ended in a transfer case and were held in with a small cotter pin. When the cotter pin was removed, the drive shafts were rolled forward and backward and that let the top of the body be removed from the lower part and the grille cam out too. It had rubber tires with the military profile and the seats were tan, all the rest was OD color. That much I remember. I gave it to a boy when I left Germany. Sure wish I could find another one. I don't even knwo who manufactured it. Anyone out there can help? Thanks
