Would any1 know the prod.dates of the Willy's P/U's

[ColeTrickle]

Just thought I'd ask. I believe they were made between 1940-1963. I always thought they looked pretty cool. And unique.

1947-1965 for the 4x4 models (yes, they overlapped the Gladiators for a couple years), but only 1947-1951 for the 2wd versions.

In the USA at least. They were revised and produced much later in Brazil.

Do you have a specific PU in mind? If you have the VIN I'll check the build date for you.
:cool:

You go 64Trvlr...what's up buddy? Long time no here. Bear has been really quiet also. Have you heard from him lately? I stopped at his check point many times but he was always out chaseing after some inocent illegals. Anything painted desert sand yet? ;)

Bob Barry: thanks for clearing this.

No 64Trvlr: I don't have one in mind. Thanks for the offer though. I am curious as to why some pickup's have the flat grille and some have the pointed grille. I have been looking at different models here on the web and can't figure it out. I was thinking the older ones had the pointed grille and then I saw a newer one with one also.

My Traveler has a pointed grille and so does the 60 wag I've got. I see if I can find anything out about the grilles for you.
:cool:

Hey appreciate it '64Trvlr.
It's really no big deal, just curious. The grille that you have seems to be the most popular. I also believe its the best looking.
I was thinking that maybe the flat grille design was for foreign markets are something...dunno.
Anyway, just curious.
