I purchased a 1961 Willys Station Wagon but all traces of VIN numbers have been removed. What can I do to replace them? Thanks
I’m new to the Willys world. I recently purchased a 1959 Willys wagon. It was restored by the previous owner and they removed all placards, replaced the motor, updated all the gauges and redid all the upholstery. Because of this I have no real identifiers to help break down what my Willys is. I have a VIN plate on the drivers side door jam and I was able to locate what I think is the serial number on the front right frame rail (12052). This is the first vehicle I’ve had where the serial number seems to define the vehicle. Unlike with the other classics I have owned I’ve been able to tell where it was manufactured, original engine size, trim options so on and so forth with just the VIN. What I’m confused about is are you not able to find those same things with these numbers on Willys? Thank you in advance!
Hi Kathryn, the serial number should be on a plate on rear entry area of the step on drivers side.
I have a 63 WILLY’S truck and I cannot find the VIN number, can you tell me where to look for it.
My Willy’s doesn’t have the original motor. Where can I find a place or Vin?
