Available for auction is this 1960 Willys Wagon finished in DOT Yellow over a brown leather and vinyl interior. This 1960 example comes equipped with an F134 inline 4-cylinder engine, a 3-speed manual transmission, and a dual-speed transfer case. It is said to have been restored with new paint, a nicely reupholstered interior, new gauges, and more. This classic Willys Wagon is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida.
This Willys comes finished in DOT Yellow with a white roof and is said to have been refinished during its restoration. Details include chrome brightwork, white bumpers, and white pinstriping. Additional images can be found in the gallery. It rides on a set of 16” Stockton steel wheels finished in white and dressed in a set of Multi-Mile Wild Country HRT tires.
The cabin has been reupholstered including the seats, headliner, doors, and side panels in a mix of brown leather and matching vinyl. It features split-folding front and rear bench seating, a body-colored dashboard, front rubber floor liners, and wood-paneled rear floors. Additional details include a locking glove box, a heater, an AM/FM cassette radio, Autometer gauges, and hand crank windows. The seller confirms that all gauges and accessories remain functional with the exception of the odometer.
Power comes from an F134 inline 4-cylinder engine, which drives the rear or all four wheels by way of a 3-speed manual transmission with overdrive and a dual-speed transfer case. The seller notes that the drivetrain has been looked over and within the last year service has included a new aluminum radiator, starter, gas tank, electric fuel pump, and overdrive. The starter to flywheel interface is said to be problematic.
This sale will include a clean title.

@jjeffries thank you for the comment. I have four Willys; obviously feel the same way as you. A piece of history. Only a few remain unmodified.
This is a real beauty.
After I sold an 87 Porsche 924S here in October I immediately ‘reinvested’ the money into a 57 Willys Pickup. They are immensely characterful machines with an excellent support network. I recommend anyone with interest looking at oldwillysforum.com to see how those with these Wagons and Pickups live with and keep them tip-top. The overdrive, 16” wheels, beautiful interior and apparent lack of corrosion make this a desirable example.

@Mweil67 I do know. Maybe the codes/numbers would explain but it has not mattered to me. I believe I have kept the car original in spirit but most of what you see is new. Paint, wheels, tires, interior, wood strips, etc. mechanically I do believe it is original with the addition of overdrive, gas tank, elec fuel pump.
Do you happen to know what the original exterior/interior colors were? How much of the car is original? Thank you
I would like to introduce myself, the owner/seller of this special wagon. Please ask any question that crosses your mind. I will answer all! I have invested in this vehicle and am only selling due to health issues.
