“1956 Willys pickup with a post hole auger on the back. PTO drivin off the transfer case to a PTO gear box on the rear of the pickup. Has a 250 inline 6 Ford and a Ford 3 speed adapted to a Dana 18 transfer case.
Pros
-runs, drives, operates and digs holes
-rewired ignition and battery cables
-New plugs, wires, cap, rotor, coil, fuel filter, fuel lines, altranator, air cleaner, oil change, belts, starter, exhaust to down pipe gasket, exhaust & muffler, gauge set, battery, and more
Cons
-lots of rust
-previous owner patched the frame in many places
-lots of jimmy rigged stuff
-radiator has small leak. Does not overheat
-no brakes
-it’s ugly
-no title/off road use only
Overall it works well but it’s ugly and nasty. Price will go up as I keep fixing/replacing parts.”
Truck isn’t registered or plated, though it shows a plate on the back.

I didn’t learn a whole lot about this truck, but apparently in 2015 this truck cruised the west coast as some type of grassroots(?) marketing venture for Nordstrom. Multiple photos of it are shown on a marketing site called “Out Cold”. I think “Out Cold” leases/rents the truck for events?

“I’ve enjoyed my Willys pickup but time to move on to another project. Selling this great truck for someone else to enjoy. It’s 4-wheel drive and has a 327 Chevy 5-speed under the hood. Runs well and has been maintained regularly. Most recently changed the brake master cylinder, mounted a remote brake reservoir, replaced the started solenoid and replaced wipers. Winner of Best in Class award at the 2017 Bastrop car show.”
Now sure how much value is here.

TJ shared this truck with a 1982 2.3 liter Peugot engine in it and featured on Barn Finds a couple days ago. It lacks four wheel drive due to non-matching RP ratios in the front and back.

“Let’s start with some bad.
No front drive line for four wheel drive because it has non matching gearing between front and rear axle.
Passenger floorboard has holes, big enough for a big toe to fit in.
Heater core has pinhole leak so it steams up the cab, currently bypassed.
Some good.

Bosch mechanical fuel injection.
Garret turbo.

“I’m selling my 1948 Willys pickup. It has not been restored in the pure sense (frame-off restoration). I just made everything work. For example, it has an electronic distributor, quick release hubs on the front axle, electric windshield wipers, converted from 6 volt to 12 volt, etc. It has the original Flat-head 4 cyl engine with single barrel carburetor, 3-speed manual transmission, hi/low transfer case, new radiator. Seats have been recovered in vinyl, spray-in bed liner. The tires are the original 6.00 x 16 bias ply.
I’ve been using it to go to the dump, go get coffee, go to the hardware store at my home near Prescott, etc. It is a conversation piece. Every time I go out somebody wants to talk about it. I have had no problems since I fixed it up. It always starts and runs. It gets me where I’m going and back. Somebody said to me that it was OLD, I said no it’s not! Then I reflected that it is 70 years old and since I’m 66 I didn’t consider it old, but I guess it is and I am! If interested, give me a call or text.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $7500.
Seller only wants to deal with folks in person. Nice looking truck.

UPDATE: Turns out we discussed this back in early 2016. http://www.ewillys.com/2016/03/13/1954-wagon-tender-garner-nc-ebay/
Scott Gilbert alerted me to this upcoming truck to be auctioned at Barrett Jackson.
Over the years, following a discussion with an Israeli jeep fan named Or, I’ve applied the designation of “Tender” to this style of truck. At the time, he’d sent me a copy of brochure and translated the model as a “Tender”.
Since then, I’ve been searching for an original US version of the Tender, but have not found one. So, while not beyond the realm of possibility, I highly doubt this is an original 1954 Tender for the following reasons.
The seller of this truck is describing it as a 1954 Truck and the serial number is claimed to be 55168 10001. However, as of 1954, the serial number system used was the 654 XX2 prefix system (the “X”s standing for various letters) to describe 4WD Willys trucks. It wasn’t until 1955 that Willys Motors adopted the 55168 system, but that year that prefix started with 55168 5001. At some point, there was a 55168 10001 produced, but that would have been late into the1955 year.
Consistent with a 1955 build, the 1955 55168 trucks model was defined as a cab only version of the Willys truck accompanied by the Super Hurricane engine, same as the truck herein. The “bed” of the truck could have been built from a wagon, so that might be consistent, too.
However, the speedo shown wasn’t produced until late 1956ish. The Willys emblem used on the hood and on the glove box looks more like an Aero emblem than a jeep emblem. The hockey-stick styling of the external chrome didn’t appear until 1960(?). Meanwhile, the two piece windshield was discontinued in 1960. So, there are major inconsistencies.
I’m sure there are other issues that folks can add to this list.
Here’s the listing: https://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/1954-JEEP-WILLYS-4X4-PICKUP-225070
Here’s the Tender’s description:
“This 1954 Willys was built as a 1955 model and is Serial #0001. A piece of Willys Jeep history, this example has 2,122 original miles and is equipped with 4-wheel drive. It’s powered by a Super Hurricane 226ci 6-cylinder engine backed by a T90 3-speed manual transmission and Dana 18 transfer case. The exterior was repainted in its correct shade of tan.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4000.
This doesn’t run, but includes a plow. Its a project.
“1947 willys pickup, NOT running. 4wd with Meyers plow. No title. Chevy 250 3sp engine (in bed), original transfer case and transmission. Extra bed and rear fiberglass fenders (no pics). Serious inquiries only please. $4000. Thanks for looking.”
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $4700.
