Willys OVERLAND
This Willys comes from a friend in the industry who already had an impressively updated engine and drivetrain. It just needs help with the sheet metal and final assembly.
The truck is packing an LS3 backed by a 4L65E and Atlas 2 transfer case. Underneath are a set of Currie heavy duty, high-pinion Dana 44 axles, Wildwood brakes and 35-inch tires on Method wheels.
This lifted 4x4 is a stark contrast to the lowered truck scene and we are excited to get this project on to the trails.
WILLYS-OVERLAND: A Brief History
The Willys-Overland Motor Company is most famous for being one of the companies who, during WWII, produced a lightweight reconnaissance car... the JEEP as we know it today!
Continuing with the Jeep-style vehicles after the war, Willys-Overland, produced an impressive 200,000 vehicles from 1947 -1965. With only a few changes to the drivetrain the Willys Overland is a cult favorite and can easily be modified into the ultimate off road vehicle.
