1957 Pickup (Tender?) & 1958 Wagon Buhl, Id Make Offer

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

The seller refers to the wagon as a ‘panel’, so this is either not a panel wagon or it might be a Parkway Conversion Panel.  Can anyone clarify that?  Frank pointed out the truck might be a Tender.

“I have 2 Willy’s Jeeps for sale 1 is a 57 pick-up and the other is a 58 Panel, Both run but each has it’s own issue’s…They both have the flat head 6, the panel motor purrs like a kitten…The panel body is in excellent shape the floor is in great condition and it has the PTO ..The pick-up runs and is driveable ..But I was goin to use it for parts for the panel I can explain the reason’s for this ..I am selling them as a pair … will not split them up …I don’t have a shop to work on them and Would like to get them to somebody that has the means to do with what is needed ..for additional information give me a call 208-410-7676…Scott”

1951 Tender? Mounds View, Mn eBay

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

Here’s the Tender that started it all.

It was this Tender that came on the market by the previous owner that got me asking the question, what is this thing?  So, it is with some irony that Bob forwarded this Ad to me and asked whether this isn’t a modified wagon rather than an actual Tender.  The thing is, there is one other just like this that was for sale.  You can view it here. So, I’m not as sure that it was a custom job.

“1951 Willys overland panel wagon that has been chopped into a pick up. Runs and drives, needs master cylinder, and front fenders bolted back on, needs new tires or tubes, 26,000 original miles, 4 wheel drive all fully functional and tight. Has currant registration and title in hand.”

A Brief Glimpse of the Kaizer-Ilin Factory in Israel

Or, a reader from Israel, has been trying to locate more information (especially the model number) about the Compact Willys Truck I have temporarily labeled a Tender.  While doing that research, he spotted a brief clip of some Willys Wagons, Trucks and the Kaizer-Ilin plant in Israel (but no Compact Willys Trucks visible).

Look at minute mark 4.22 through 4.43.

Or also spotted another example of the Compact Truck in Israel:

Or spots another Tender in Israel — $10,000

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

Or found this Tander for sale (thanks Or!).  The exchange rate puts the price on this at about $10,000.  I still a bit shocked I haven’t seen any original literature for these yet.  That’s reminds me .. I need to build a special page for these ….

Anyone know anything about these trucks?

• CATEGORIES: CJ-2A, Features, Old Images, Willys Trucks • TAGS: This site contains affiliate links for which I may be compensated.

Doing some research on Warn hubs this morning, I ran across this image on Warn’s corporate website.  This may very well be  the original Warn Motor’s Service station in Seattle, Washington, where Arthur Warn developed his early ‘Summer Hubs’ as Mike refers to them.  Note the signs atop the roof, “Jeeps”  and “Warn Motors”.

If there were just one of these trucks, i would call it a custom one-off project.  However, two of these suggest to me this was a kit of some kind?  It kind of looks like the prototype for the Willys we have named a Tender.

Another Tender Truck

Or, from our Israeli Bureau, spotted another Tender Truck for sale.  I used Babelfish to translate the Hebrew, but it was only barely understandable.  So, we can just check out the pics.  Thanks Or!

You can see the original article here and here’s the main Tender page, though I will be creating a Tender section soon.
