Tell your kids, tell your parents, tell your facebook friends, your twitterererers, your classmates, your co-workers, and even people you don’t like to go to GO TO THIS LINK, so you can announce to the National Trust for Historic Preservation (NTHP) that you want to save the Bantam Building in Butler, Pa, the original building where the first Bantam 4×4 was birthed in only 72 days! (Which, oddly enough for you trivia lovers, is close to the average gestation period for a dog — after all, an old jeep is a human’s best vehicle-friend, right?)

What happens when you go to that link? Well, Downtown Butler has entered the Bantam Building into a NTHP contest to win a $25,000 grant. Communities all over the United States are voting for their buildings. However, we have the world on our side, for the Willys folks are a world-wide community and we know our roots begin at that Bantam building 70 years ago this month!
Out of 6 billion earthlings, we must have enough Willys-Patriots to win this contest! So find an earthling and encourage them, for the love of Willys, to vote for the Bantam Building!
We only have until September 15th, so jump to it people. The entire eWillys corporate staff has already voted (ok, that’s only 1 vote, but it’s powerful). So now it is your turn!!!
Also, don’t forget that the Bantam Heritage Festival is next August 12-14, 2011, in Butler, Pa.
