Writing a paper on the history of the Jeep

The paper also has to focus on how much the Jeep has changed over the years. I want to focus on how much it helped out during the war. The factory in Toledo, Is it being torn down? also how much they have changed from then to now without getting too technical with specific parts and things that most people wouldn't understand. Any good links? good sources?? thanks

Sounds like an interesting paper. I'd love to read it after completion.

Be careful with your sources. Alot of bad info out there (especially here!)
The history channel did a "Modern Marvels" episode on military jeeps, I'd look into that.
Plenty of books out there as well. I'd trust a book over a fanboy's site any day. Make sure the book has a solid resource/works cited section before digging into it.
I'll look up a few sources I trust and post them here for you:
