    No real idea I'm afraid, Ron.

    Hmmm.
    Looking at the URL you used, I'm guessing you searched the terms 'willy's' & 'jeep'?
    My guess, is that the apostrophe in Willys has caused bother in creating the URL generated by the search:

    h t t p ://www.ww2talk.com/forum/general/26787-rhd-willys-jeep.html?highlight=Willy%27s+Jeep

    Will do some testing and see if I can confirm, but no promises, as it can all get rather confusing.

    Yep, seems that apostrophes kill search result URLs.
    Will look deeper at the search settings.

    Maybe it is worth adding to the FAQ that when you use the search facility an apostrophy should not be used in the search word(s)
