Jeeps....

An exchange from an early episode of the TV series Combat! Keenan Wynn is some bigshot, loudmouth brass and Shecky is a buck private who is supposed to be the jeep driver but the Colonel jumps in the seat.

Keenan Wynn: "Used to race a little before the war. Mostly midgets. You ever drive a midget?"

Shecky Greene: "They wouldn't drive with me, sir. Sorry, sir."

All that to bring out this little item that has one time sprint car champ Jimmie Wilburn lauding the skills of driving a jeep during the war.
