I just took ownership of a 1944 Willy's. It has been in my family for 75 years. It has been sitting idle for about the last 40 years. I am located in Thousand Oaks, CA. Wondering if there are any experts in the area.

Welcome RickM1957!
I would start with your local chapter of the MVPA, ( military vehicle preservation association). The Supply Line magazine that they put out is full of good information.

Good luck, and please post some pictures!

Looks good. Lots of potential!
Military Vehicles Magazine is another great resource for information.
