Amanda Haakenson's 1949 Willys Truck

Amanda Haakenson's 1949 Willys Truck

We bought a farm about 6 years ago and I told my husband that I wanted an older truck for a farm truck. He was talking to his brother back home in North Dakota and asked him to keep an eye out for an older pick up. He texted us one day with pictures of this pick up and I told my husband that would be the perfect farm truck. So his brother went and got it for us and my husband had it shipped here for me as a surprise Christmas present. It just amazes me the journey this vehicle has taken from being built in Toledo, Ohio to North Dakota for many year then it has made its way back to Ohio. That was about two years ago and we use it all the time from going to town, to hauling hay, to just taking the dogs for a ride. Our one dog just loves it! When he hears it fire up, he is ready to go for a ride no matter what time of year.

  1. Dont leave the keys unattended. otherwise that little dog will be behind the wheel tooting the horn waiting for you. We had a Shihtzu and he loved the motor bike but also if you mentioned another vehicle he would run to it. There is something special about lifestyle and pets being involved. We share your passion. Merry Christmas
