1950 willys

1950[edit]

The 1950 model year saw the VJ-3 Jeepster's first styling revisions, which included a new instrument panel and redesigned front end featuring a V-shaped grille with horizontal chrome trim.[10] The car had very little standard equipment.[citation needed] Willys' L161 Lightning six-cylinder was offered in addition to the standard Kill Devil four-cylinder.[14] Model designations were dependent on production timeframe, with early 1950s four-cylinder Jeepsters given VJ-3 463 and six-cylinders VJ-3 663, changed to VJ-473 and VJ-673, respectively, for later year vehicles.[14]

We traveled along with this jeep on the way home and when we stopped at a rest stop so did they. The owner was a pleasant gentleman who was quite pleased when I ask about it and if I could take a photo. This is the first one I have ever seen in person. I really love old vehicles.
