1952 Willys Wagon – $2,000 Prescott, AZ

Sent in by Andy  posting as a 52 they have it listed as a 1945, but has the V grill, the 5 bars, the placement of the battery tray, some of the trim and other smaller details like the rounded wheel wells, I really just went with that “452” which is not original but looks like a replacement VIN of sorts, so who knows got to start somewhere.

The SN does place it in 1952 correctly as a Wagon with the FA2 and the SN sequence is correct, but the unique use of the Letter I stamp for the F and the 1 in 10808 are pretty much not standard practice, good use of what was in the kit, it got the job done and back on the road at some point. My 1950 Truck Salad has a very familiar feel to its VIN on the side door, so been there, am there kind of thing. Not knocking this whatso ever.

Seat frames are there in the front. The horn I like those dual note set up or the early flat horns. Most likely 6V so tread carefully if you are testing these out.

Heater looks “newer” maybe late 50’s early 60’s?

Not sure what the small pan is above the steering wheel on the dash, maybe for your Sun Flower Seeds or something else?

Next to the Speedo there is a small sign that is related to “The NIK-O-LOCK Company” out of Indianapolis, IN that was for Pay Dressing Room and Toilet’s back in the day. Was able to dig that up on the good old interwebs, pretty amazing how almost everything is cataloged out there somewhere!
