I have some t-shirt ideas and thought I’d see what you all thought about them.  I’m trying to create a different kind of willys t-shirt.    The “Africa” shirt would be one of a series of “WWII” vehicles.

No pics and no description.  However, it sounds like there’s some cool stuff for sale.

Hemmings.com reported yesterday that Tucker #1045, estimated by RMAuctions to go for $550,000 – $750,000 was auctioned on Friday, August 13th, for $1,127,500 — the most ever for a Tucker.  Now that’s some price appreciation!

Kaiser Willys has generously offered to provide eWillys readers with a one time discount of 10% off parts purchased from the company (the offer excludes Body Tubs and Body Tub Kits).  You’ll note their ad in the sidebar to the right.  So, thanks to Kaiser Willys and thanks to Greg, a reader who took it upon himself to contact the company and launch this relationship. So, take advantage of this opportunity while it lasts!

I’m also hoping to publish a post in the future that describes how this family business started so we call all learn more about the company.

From the website: “Kaiser Willys Auto Supply, a family owned business for over 10 years, is dedicated to providing quality and reasonably priced vintage Willys parts and Willys Jeep parts and accessories for all 1941 to 1971 Willys and Jeep vehicles. In 2002 we built a 6,000 square foot warehouse to house more than 7,000 parts and to better serve our customers. We guarantee full customer satisfaction – our goal is to make every first-time customer a lifetime customer!”
