The April 1955 issue of Willys News published this photo. It’s a tour jeep truck for the Africa. It seems a little too open to me. Those lions look like they could easily leap inside.

2 1959 & 1 1955 Trucks Goleta, CA **Status Unknown**
UPDATE: **Status Unknown** Was $7175
Anthony is selling these trucks. We got to meet him during our tour of California in 2014.
“This is a great opportunity to own three Willy’s trucks. For sale are a 1955, and two 1959’s. One 59 runs good, street legal, blinkers, speedo, gauges work, could be daily driver. That truck will be sold with a truck cover. The 1959 will be sold with a rebuilt super hurricane flat head six, with water pump and possible clutch assemblies. Additionally, starter has been rebuilt; radiator have been boiled, cleaned and repainted, new tires, extra seats, doors. The trucks are basically all original with engines and transmissions. The 1959 has good transmission that doesn’t jump out of second (notorious for T-90’s), and both 4-wheel drive works well. Some body work will be needed, but the body is in decent shape for 1950’s. I am selling for I do not have the time to refurbish. Clean title on all three. (I will miss them).”

Glenn spotted this truck.
“Rebuilt 250 engine. Tranny just gone through. 4×4. With complete plow. New water pump. Good running truck. Is used almost daily. Not perfect but in overall good condition. Perfect blend of antique, work truck, gets lots of looks and gets the job done. This thing gets more places than some of the newer 4×4’s and was used to pull one out that was stuck in the woods. Tough, good running, cool looking truck.”
