    I recommend that if for some reason that you have an interest in this at any price, that you ask if it is made of metal or PLASTIC. There were 3 made, and to my knowledge NONE ARE METAL? Yes, I have one.

    Do you mean the plaque, the structure, or both are plastic?

    Judging from the wooden stand, this plaque appears to be one of them removed from the old Jeep House display. Interesting and disappointing to see it show up on Ebay.

    The Plaque is most likely plastic. The stand is wood. I agree with Jerry. It's a shame for it to turn into a high dollar trophy. It belongs in a museum even if Delmar Roos's name is spelled Demar on the plaque.

    I agree with you both.

    It is a shame they spelled Delmar Roos' name wrong.

    I just got a reply from the seller. It's a wood base with a bronze plate. It's not plastic.

    did willys actually build 637,00 units? I thought that number was a combination between ford and willys. I don't know, that's why I ask.

    well..........if I'd read further I would have read the answer!!! it's time for coffee.

    That's probably WHY it's on ebay........because they had to scrap it because of the miss spelled Name?

    Frank, Well that's an interesting thought. Keith, does yours have the misspelled name? - Dave
