Is That A Willys Wagon?? 1956 Willys Project

Nice! I truly like the electric lift mechanism.

I like the execution of the cowl lift. Fancy!

Just a question: How was this vent actuated originally?

[gmwillys]

The vent is actuated by a hand lever under the dash. The vent was opened by pushing the lever forward. The photo attached shows the manual mechanism, with the silver handle with the black rubber end being the lever.

Thanks for the picture. I've never been around these Willys trucks much.

Never was a Willys with so many gear choices!

[gmwillys]

I like the options of multiple gears. With all the torque and boost, he can probably start out in third with no issues.

It might fall on its side and be done:-)

Front and rear seats bolted in the Willys. Seat belts x5/3pt x4.

Days and days of time and work. Geeeeezzzzz…Those king ranch seats are heavy, awkward, and so difficult to mount. Beat me down.
