Photos of the Willys. It belonged to my Uncle whom I was going to help him fix it up one day. Sadly I lost him and my Mother gave the Willys and a 1926 Ford roadster to me. I had them shipped to my house and decided to restore them in his honor. The Willys is done but I am collecting parts for the roadster. I did Find a near new turtle deck for it in the US which was a major hurdle. The Willys took me nearly two years of hard work and a fair bit of cash as you can see it was very rough fresh off the farm. It had the wrong engine in it but I found the original in three 5 gallon pails with a spun crank and rods. I am very happy to have finished it and it reminds me of him every time I see it. Thanks for the interest.
