Just found this site and joined up. I have a '54 Wagon that I bought on eBay 2 years ago. It's an amature restoration but looks and runs good and is a ton of fun to drive.
My interest in the Willys wagons and trucks spans many years. As a kid, my Dad always wanted a Willys wagon even though we were too poor to buy one. Once a year he would go to our local dealer, look over the new models, con the salesman into a test drive, then pick up all the literature he could and go home and dream. I loved riding in those new Jeeps and looking at the pictures in the literature. He died in 1968 and never got his wagon.
For years I have been looking for a wagon of my own. Everything I found was either too much money or junk until I found the one I have now. I love loading up the wife and dog and going to a show, cruise night or just a back road ride on a nice day. I think of my Dad and hope he's happy we finally got a Willys Wagon.
I'll go by the name of "Old Willy" because I'm 62 going on 20 and my name is Bill (nickname Willy).
Thanks.
