THAT 58 WILLYS IS A NEAT OLD RIDE. I REMEMBER SEEING THEM AS A KID THINKING HOW UGLY THEY WERE. FUNNY HOW TASTES CHANGE WITH KNOWLEDGE AND TIME. DID NOT KNOW WILLYS EVEN MADE THIS STYLE. I KNOW I-H DID THEN FOLLOWED BY FORD, DODGE AND CHEVY, ETC. HOWEVER WHEN I WAS A YOUNG LAD, MINE WAS A TONKA.

Yeah, Willys is the only one I know just like this, for personal use, not commercial. They made tons of variations, mainly the 170, and the 150 seen above this post. They made crew cabs, motorhomes, vans, etc. If you have free time, check this gallery out, biggest collection of FCs. http://www.thefcconnection.com/fc_gallery.htm

If you like to look at old trucks (and I mean mostly from the 20s) I just posted almost 250 truck ads on eBay. Just eBay search FIVE DOLLAR AD - TRUCK Jack Sim

I love the pics, guys. I am partial to Old (late 30's-early 40s) Willys pick-ups and late 40s-early 50s Studebaker trucks myself. I think I will cruise Simi and snap a few truck pics and ad them to the mix. Lucky you, Doc, with all those places to look at old cars!!! Dave Folck
