I love the proportions on these things, especially in that color it looks like a child’s toy.

[@joewoodchuck3824]

I bet that plenty of people seeing the current Jeep pickup model think that it's the first they've ever made. I love the Willys Jeep era. The AMC version was cool too. Once Chrysler got ahold of it though things changed and not for the better.

[@richardnatividad2962]

I've had a lot of nice machines, but nothing compares to my 1957 Willys wagon will a 289 hi-po V8 engine. As 67 it's my most memorable piece of equipment I've ever owned

[@davidmills817]

I learned to drive in one of the wagons. 14 or 15 years old driving through the Mohave. Every one else was riding motorcycles .

[@craigdouglasmartens7037]

My first waking memory in my life was of me rolling around in the back of my grandpa's Willys back in 1964. My dad used these in the forestry industry in KwaZulu Natal. Great trucks. Fantastic Blues harp player by the way!

[@therealjeepguy]

Thanks for sharing!

[@randyforestier7256]

That's nice old truck. My 1956 willys truck came with a 2 barrel carburetor.

[@ciscokidfab7595]

Sweeeeet ride.

[@spectatorsview6501]

Cool Wiley’s in great condition. I have a 1951 all original flat bed with a new F-head 134 Hurricane engine also 6volt. Fun trucks thanks for sharing the story. 👍🏻

Thanks jeep guy for the video.

[@therealjeepguy]

You bet, thank you for watching!

I love this truck! Great history too. There was several of these in my extended family that got passed around, two of which had a Chevy 283 swap (stock, 220 HP 4-bbl). My dad ended up with one, a ‘57, which I was allowed to drive sometimes back in HS. It had remarkably tight, positive steering for those things, as well as the shifter. Made it a pleasure to drive, although we knew better than t abuse the drive train. The other one had the 283 swapped out for a 235 six by my uncle, who was a six-cylinder guy. Weird, but it suited his needs just fine.

[@lilman69957]

Just bought a 53 and can't wait to start fixing it up.

[@therealjeepguy]

Congrats! You'll love it. They are a lot of fun to drive around town, light wheeling and helping with jobs around the house.

[@GilletTDM]

I love our jeep truck ❤❤❤

[@AjayVerma-pl8cr]

Very nice

[@bigbill709]

You can't go wrong with a Jeep.

[@therealjeepguy]

Nope!

[@Dbcooper581]

It's would be awesome if you were able to find the camper it had, or another one for it.

[@therealjeepguy]

Yes, it would! It would be even better to take it camping with the new camper and tow one of the flat fenders. :)

[@enriquelopez9124]

When you see the new Jeep 4 door pick up there are similarities with this truck.

[@therealjeepguy]

Yup, we have almost every Jeep truck ever made, and they all have a lot in common. Love them all.

[@C.Hawkshaw]

Oh God l wouldn’t rock hop in that beautiful old thing! That’s some American made steel baling wire right there!

[@enriquelopez9124]

Now the new Jeeps have Hemi engines in them they are not like what they use to be.

[@therealjeepguy]

The Hemi is super fun to drive as well. :)

[@murraymadness4674]

These trucks are not really safe over 45mph with the stock chassis and drivetrain. btw, I have a 47 truck and 53 Panel. Both are going on a gen2 ford explorer chassis, the truck a 5.0 awd, the panel gets a 3.0 v6 duratec

[@tolbaszy8067]

Your driveway could use a little grading!

[@jonhein6575]

Nice! Any pointers of fixing up a 1955?

[@therealjeepguy]

Keep it as original as possible, and it'll never let you down.

[@danieljohnson8437]

Lucky

[@toddgittins5692]

See these all over the Mountain West. The ones I've looked at are all super low mileage. Not real user friendly. Cool machines!

[@therealjeepguy]

We use ours all the time. It's been very user-friendly for us.

[@toddgittins5692]

@@therealjeepguy guy down the road, just bought a 1953 Jeep style. 29,000 miles, $500. The engine is stuck.

[@stevenbrown1798]

Hopefully you don’t destroy it

Pointy nose
