    Looking at purchasing a Willys Wagon to restore...

    I have done a '52 Willys M38 Jeep and found that forums such as this are a wealth of information and support... :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Hope to post more questions and some answers as time goes on...

    My next 4 year project, maybe 5 or 6... Who knows... :)

    For those of you into "Old" cars I just purchased a 1951 Willys Station Wagon to restore... It is 95% complete and only major component missing is the radiator... :2_thumbs_up_-_anima

    Welcome... :Welcome:
    reminds me of my M38 A1 (assembled by and also known as NEKAF which stands for NEtherlands KAiser Fabric) from Royal Netherlands Army I had 15 years ago:

    I also belong to the G503.com website and the WillysMJeeps.com website... I have spent the last 4 years restoring this M-38CDN (Canadian) and a year doing the M-100 Trailer...

    I had a ball doing this and the looks when this jeep rolls down the street under its own power is great, especially from old timers...

    Enjoy...

    No, the Willys Wagon will go Original, I bought it this weekend ($40) Ernest money and pay the remainder on Sunday when I pick it up... It used to be used as a TV - Radio repair truck, you can still see some of the markings on the sides, be nice to trace it back and maybe redo it as that; as I work in electronics/radio (Cellular Tech, I maintain the cell sites) also an Amateur Radio Operator...

    Hehe, reminds me of Jeepneys I encountered in Manila. Welcome to the station wagon forum. Now that would be a challenging project:D
