Jeep History Exhibit

Friday 9 a.m. -  4 p.m.
Saturday 9 a.m. - 6 p.m.
Sunday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.

It all started right here in Butler County, Pennsylvania. The American Bantam Car Company invented, developed, and produced the world’s very first Jeep — and at Bantam 2026, we’re bringing that history to life in a big way.

Each year, our featured Jeep exhibit evolves, showcasing a rotating lineup of incredible Jeeps that tell the story of where it all began and how far the Jeep legacy has gone. From early icons to unforgettable builds, this is your chance to see pieces of Jeep history up close.

Even better? You’ll be able to meet the owners, hear their stories, and talk with passionate Jeep historians who live and breathe this legacy. It’s more than an exhibit — it’s a chance to connect with the roots of the Jeep community.

We’ll be revealing the featured Jeeps for 2026 closer to the event, so stay tuned — because this year’s lineup is one you won’t want to miss.
