There’s a new world record holder for the most Jeeps assembled in the same place at once so the title no longer belongs to Butler.

The event Jeep Beach in Daytona, Fla., broke the record Sunday when the group assembled 1,846 Jeeps during the organization’s annual festival.

That number, which is officially recognized by the Guinness World Records group, bested the old record of 1,106 Jeeps set by the 201 Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival in Butler.

But Heritage Festival organizers expect the record won’t stand for long.

“It wasn’t unexpected,” said festival organizer Patti Jo Lambert on Monday. “Now we know what we need to do here to beat that record.”

Lambert said registration will continue until May 17 for the Jeep Invasion, which is a parade through downtown Butler on the opening night of the festival.

The Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival will be June 12-14 in Butler and at Cooper’s Lake Campground.

Lambert stressed that any model of Jeep is eligible for the parade and urged anyone who’s been thinking of participating to register.

“As long as it says Jeep, it counts,” she said of the parade. “We can’t let the beach (Daytona) beat the birthplace (Butler).”
