Willys Stamped Name

• CATEGORIES: Features This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

A reader asked if the WILLYS logo stamped on a hood could be used to replace the WILLYS used on the rear of Willys MBs during the war. At first blush, I thought they were different, but had never actually compared the sizes. So, below is a comparison (I randomly grabbed a tub and a hood example off the internet). The top photo shows the rear of a tub (obviously being repaired) and the bottom photo is a hood stamping from a CJ-3B.

willys-vs-willys-scriptAs you can see, the war-tub Willys logo has more letter spacing than the post war logo. The spacing within individual letters (the W, T, & S) also is less.  The post war letters are taller than the tub letters.

1965 Wagon Ridgefield, WA $3000

• CATEGORIES: Willys Wagons • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Seems a good price.

“Selling a 1965 Willys Wagon, I know what your thinking (you idiot) Willys Wagon were discontinued in 1964, which is true. But they had left over parts and a few were built in 65.
Has original 6 cylinder, over head cam, Tornado engine. Mostly original except front hubs (have the
original ones) and the seat covers. Was running when I parked it several years ago. Was going to
restore it but….things change. Was going to ask 4000.00 and settle for 3000.00 but lets cut to the
chase, it’s $3000.00 period.”
