My grandfather purchased new from Selfridge airbase as surplus. Never plated, used to move boats at Clinton River Marina in Mt. Clemens Michigan. Brought up north, Kalkaska Michigan to be used on tree farm to
present-day. Engine had one valve job performed on it 40 years ago, 12 V alternator fabricated, master brake cylinder and wheel cylinders replaced. Still in service moving trailers and towing trees. In 1969 this Willy’s fell through the ice in Lake St. Clair, a large path was chain-sawed to the shoreline. Pulled to shore with long ropes, where the engine was pickled and started up. The fluids were changed and it was put back in the service the following spring.
