1959 Willys Jeep

Description for Willys 1959

For sale in our Dallas/Fort Worth showroom is an awesome 1959 Willys Jeep Station Wagon. In the post-war era, this was one of Willy's most successful models, with over 300,000 produced. This was also the first Willys to have an independent front suspension. While the steel body may not be as desirable as the wood bodied cars to many people, they were easier to mass produce, easier to maintain, and most importantly safer than the previous lumber bodied pre-war cars. This particular Willys Jeep has been well restored and modified to make it a more formidable off-road vehicle. The work of the frame off restoration shows. The bright yellow and black paint scheme stands out nicely, and accents the wagons body lines. The black cloth interior may be simple, but is a very comfortable place to cruise the road or crawl the trails. The three speed transmission has both 4-high and 4-low gearing, as well as an overdrive option. It spins Dana axles in the front and rear. Naturally your next question is what produces the power to spin these gears. Unlatch the hood and you find the tried, true, and test Chevrolet 350 CID small block V8. This cool classic wagon would make a great little weekend toy for your local mud pit. Check it out today!
