1955 WILLYS PICKUP

Details

This is a four-year, nut-and-bolt rotisserie restoration with every nut, bolt, screw and wire restored to the highest degree possible. It is powered by an original 226ci inline 6-cylinder engine with factory-optional 2-barrel carburetor with a manual 3-speed transmission. The exterior is painted show-quality Midnight Blue buffed to a mirror-like luster with high-quality 3M Yellow lettering and comes fitted with a color-matching custom blue and yellow show-quality interior. Features include

4-wheel drive with factory optional 5.38 gears, a boxed reinforced frame, front bumper with winch, rear bumper with PTO shaft, optional radio, CB radio, heater, spare gas can and spare tire. This truck was a high-quality restoration; no corners were cut in any way, with everything from the drivetrain to paint and chrome to glass and interior completed by professionals in their specific fields. It also features a valuable in-bed, one-off removable custom-painted tribute to America done by noted automotive artist Scott Berosik, whose work is featured in many art galleries across the country. Everything works and performs as it should, with over $100,000 invested in the restoration. A large binder of receipts documenting the build, along with two large binders full of restoration pictures, accompanies the car. Finished in 2016, with only 14 test miles since restoration, it was already a multi-award-winning truck as well as the December 2016 feature truck in the Kasier/Willys/Jeep calendar.
