My neighbor has one of those unrestrored that he drives to work almost every day. He works about a mile and a half from his house. We have a summer only road to the North that gets real ugly in the winter and spring. He trucks right through. They were a really well made truck. Basic but tough.

I've always wanted a Willys truck or wagon. I hope someday I can,still. Did you mean to put this in General Discussion,since this message board is for 67-72 GM trucks only? I only mention this because when people post unrelated topics here it crowds out the related ones. Even once moved,which it will be,the redirect remains taking up space reserved for related topics.

I love those old Willys pickups. Simple, yet durable. I've never seen one that fancy though.

he used my favorite line, "runs like a top". every top I have seen just spins and spins until it flops down dead. LOL

not a bad looking truck though. I like things that are simple and rugged.

Very nice Willys Overland pickup, and a very detailed restoration.

I like it!

I think those are my all time favorite trucks. I must have lost my way,not sure I'll even end up with one now. I guess I caught the Chevy bug and let every other vehicle I liked drift back on my list. In a perfect world I'd have all the GM trucks I love,at least one of these and a Power Wagon. If I collected general makes I'd have all the examples of true 4wds in all makes.
