1954 Willys Station Wagon - It was purchased new by my grandfather in 1954 to prospect for uranium in Texas and New Mexico then used as a farm truck in 1957. I put it in storage in 1996 and got it out last winter. It\'s all stock with the 6 cyl engine, original 6 volt system, 71,300 miles on it. Turn signals, the defroster/heater and the PTO winch were the “options” and the purchase price was $3,800 after trading a 47 station wagon in.

These are picture of my 1954 (6-226) Willys Station Wagon. I got a dream...to refurbish this Willy. Are there any books available that would guide me on how to restore this station wagon (what do I need to know so I order the correct parts - year, serial number..., what should I do first - rebuild the engine, It hasn't been run in 10yr or so..., is there anything I should look at that my say don't bother...)? Any help or advise would be appreciated. Thanks, Dan Harrington

1962 Willys Utility Wagon. Still running its original engine (75,000 miles) without any rebuild so far. My jeep was originally a Canadian government vehicle kept at a remote Vancouver Island location to provide access to a air navigation site located on a small mountain. Four wheel drive was essential especially in winter months. I had the pleasure of driving up that hill to service the electronics for many years. Ten years after my transfer I tracked down my old jeep and bought it. That was thirty years ago. We celebrated my Willys 60th birthday this year. It\'s been a big part of many good times. Now we\'re looking forward to camping trips with the grand children.

Here's my '52 685 S/W at Humboldt Redwoods State Park in Northern California. Still driving it most everyday. Took some great road trips through AZ, UT, CA, OR and WA over the past few years. Not the most comfortable traveling rig of course but it's a Willys Overland Utility S/W and that's the rig for me. More laterrr...

My husband has been enjoying your photo gallery so I thought that I would share his pics as well. Thank you for putting this together! This is a 1964 Willys wagon,with a little help from my friends we put sedan delivery doors on my wagon. It also has a rambler 327 engine, I made custom headers, custom input shaft for the trans because the t-90 input shaft is about 3''to short, and a custom oil filter adapter. THIS IS MY EVERYDAY DRIVER. David Kline New Hope, Pa

My first vehicle when I turned 16 was my grampa’s 62 wagon. Being a typical kid, I promptly totaled it that same year. Afterwards, I always kept my open for another one - 27 years later I picked up this one. As you can see, it was in pretty good shape. I am in the beginning stages of doing a complete fame off restoration.

Awesome paint job/color scheme! Have any before restoration photos? I’m looking for a replacement front window and wonder if you replaced yours, if you still have the old one (you mite sell) or were can I find one? Big tires must be off-road, how’s the noise and ride on highway?
Flowers is a nice touch!

Have you ever seen the pictures of a wagon I believe was in New Zealand that was getting new front tin in the form of if I remember correctly, 34 Ford. It was mocked up at the time I saw it but looked very cool. I love the wagons from stock to wild .
Great pics of these WIllys! I’m a huge Jeep fan even though we mainly sell Toyotas, these classic Willys are always a head turner and I love seeing what people do with them.
Maintain the excellent job mate. This web blog publish shows how well you comprehend and know this subject.

I need help, my cj2a is hanging up in 3rd gear. It appears the clutch gear may moving too far forward so that it can not return> I took the top off the transmission and managed to depress the spring loaded gears and got the clutch gear to move back to it’s correct position. Put it back together and it immediately happened again.
I can not figure out if something in the gear box is allowing the excessive travel or if it is a linkage problem. Any body got any ideas?

My husband and I have a 1960 Jeep Willys Wagon for sale
and still runs fine. It has had the old hurricane engine replaced with a 1986 Jeep CJ5 engine in 1991.
My father in-law bought this Willys from the local dealer and we still have the invoice he paid for it on.
We are making some new pictures of it and will be ready to send them out to others who have inquired on Wednesday of this week. If you would like I could send you a set as well. My email address is above as noted. Judy Summers Cape Charles, Virginia
I am looking for a nice Willys wagon, all considered. Any help appreciated… Jim
