161: Alan Jacobus’ 1962 Willys Station Wagon
I’ve had the Willys Wagon for over 15 years. It’s got a 283 Chevy in it. Restoring it is on my list of projects.

Looking good, are you going to restore it to original, like put the correct engine back in?

Alan,
Hey was I surprised to see my old willys wagon in the KW catalog page 221. I recognized the tow bar and then the winch as I looked at this blog. Nice to see the old gal is still running. Wish I had her back every now and then, but it looks like she has a good home.
Saw the Idaho plate, so you must still be in the area. I am in Boise now. Would like to get together and catch up. I now have a 1946-50 CJ2/3a (registered as 46) which has been fun and hell all at the same time. I have been working on it for over three years. V6, Muncie 4 speed, new brakes and suspension. Jeeps just seem to be in my blood.
I’ll watch for a reply. Best wishes. Mike
