Vehicle Description
Gateway Classic Cars of Houston has an excellent opportunity for
you to own this awesome 1962 Willys Jeep Station Wagon! Did you
know that the Willys Jeep Station Wagon was the first mass-market
all-steel station wagon designed and built as a passenger vehicle?
This one has had a number of upgrades to improve the overall
driving experience from that of a stock Wagon. Included in these
upgrades is a stout 350 CID Chevrolet V8 engine that was rebuilt by
Jasper Engine & Transmission about 8-10,000 miles ago. This engine
has an extremely long life ahead of it. It is mated to a smooth
shifting 400 automatic transmission which has also been rebuilt at
the same time as the engine. If you take a look at the front and
rear end of the vehicle you will notice that it has been adapted
from a Toyota Land Cruiser to enhance the capabilities of the
station wagon. The paint has been redone in a maroon/white combo
and the interior was finished in maroon/brown vinyl. Together they
look beautiful. The cabin is kept cool with a fully functioning air
conditioning system for those hot summer days. If you had one of
these back in 1962 you might remember songs like I Can't Stop
Loving You by Ray Charles playing through the radio for the first
time. This Willys will play your favorite radio stations on it's
AM/FM radio for a more entertaining experience. Other convenient
features include power steering to help you maneuver this ultra
capable machine. You will also find power windows, seat belts, a
tilt steering wheel and quality radial tires. This really is a
fantastic example of one of the most iconic vehicles in American
automotive history and it would be a shame to miss this one. We
have financing and shipping options available to make the
purchasing process easier even if you are not in the Houston area.
Don't miss this one. Call the Houston showroom at (832) 243-6220
