designed and built as a passenger vehicle. With over 300,000 wagons
and its variants built in the U.S., it was one of Willys' most

ownership of Kaiser (Willys Motors Incorporated), several new
models were added to the lineup that would eventually include the
commercial delivery formats (Sedan Delivery, Panel Delivery,
Utility Delivery). Ultimately, the Willys Station Wagon was phased
out in 1965 by the Jeep Wagoneer. To view the car in greater
