047: Neal Neubauer’s 1951 Willys Truck
Parts and pieces. This is my Willys Pickup. It’s registered ’51’ and the body is laid out as a ’50’-’54’ (I think). The only thing that would be different is the fresh air intake hole beside the front grill. It’s a ’48’ from the cab back with a newer front clip.
I had two pickups when I was a kid in the 70’s and 80’s and never lost my love for them. All 1996 4×4 regular cab S-10 frame. Wheelbase was exact. 4.3L Vortec, Automatic 4L60E, AC, Cruise, ABS. Very drivable. Even the wipers have several electric speeds!

Beautiful Green truck I really like the color. My parents [both deceased] had a 68 Ford Falcon Sea Foam green almost this color..

Hey Neal. Nice Pickup. I’m putting together one of my own and I was wondering what your front seat was from. Looks like it fits great.

THE CAB CONSTRUCTION IS BASICLY FLAT METAL PANELS THAT CAN BE MADE
IN A SIMPLE HAND BRAKE OUT OF 26 GAGE GALVANIZED..
I WORKED IN TWO DIFFERENT FIRE TRUCK PLANTS FOR THIRTEEN YEARS,
BUILDING TRUCK CABS . WARD LAFRANCE TRUCK AND AMERICAN LAFRANCE.
DESIGNING AND BUILDING A NEW TRUCK CAB WAS A CAKE WALK.

Hallo Neal Neubauer,
Your truck is very nice, very similar to my green 63 Truck. It is not finished. I hope it will be as good as Yours.
Soon.
Merry Christmas from Peter Queensland Australia
