Vehicle Description
Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 24th year in the
classic and muscle car business. Here's a nicely restored rarity.
Check out this wild 1959 Willys Jeep DJ-3A Surrey. And, no, it's
Tropical Rose and Coral Mist, Thank You. These delightful runabouts
evolved from the DJ-3A Dispatcher, the ubiquitous delivery vans
used by the U.S. Postal Service. Louis Yocich, a salesman for
Willys Export, had seen the Jeeps at Las Brisas resort in Acapulco,
Mexico, which were pink with canvas halfcab tops. He figured that a
similar Jeep might work at Henry Kaiser's 1,100-room Hawaiian
Village Hotel, so the Gala (export) and Surrey (domestic market)
were created in 1959. Our cool Tropical Rose and Coral Mist 1959
Surrey is a fine example of these rare and charming beach buggies.
Lift the hood and you'll see the iconic Willys Go Devil 134 ci I4
engine that conquered the world during and after the Second World
War. Additional features include a 3-speed manual transmission,
correct and hard-to-find upholstery, and G70-15 wide whitewall
tires on steel wheels with correct covers. Please note its
excellent condition, particularly the chassis, in the images
provided. The first time that we sold one of these, I was shocked
that it sold almost immediately for full price, so I did some
research. Who knew? EVERYBODY loves these things. Elvis Presley
even bought one, same colors, that's still on display at Graceland!
This classic runs and drives as it should, and it never fails to
make people smile. If this rare and charming party wagon belongs in
your collection, call the team that can make your dream a reality.
