Looks good.
“1958 Willys Wagon for sale. All original drivetrain. L-226 Flathead 6 engine, T-90 3 speed transmission and Dana 18 Transfer case.
The body is in very good shape with minor rust. Some oil leaks and will need a clutch soon. Starts, drives, and stops.
Drivers seat (needs upholstery) and passenger seat frame only.
It is hard to find an original Willys Wagon with a body in this condition. It wouldn’t take much to make it a nice, comfortable daily driver.”

I looked at this wagon five years ago before I found my ’64 Traveller. This one had lived much of its life on a horse ranch west of Red Bluff, California. It’s hot and and arid up there, ideal for preserving old iron.

I’m also not too far from its current location (if the CL ad is accurate). Happy to go look at it for an out-of-town buyer.

I drove this about 2-3 years ago. It was in good shape then, drove well – I wasn’t especially adept at using the choke. Ran well in both hi/low all gears. Major flaw was rust holes in both fender wells 10-12″ you could put your little finger in.
Thanks for the additional information Vic!
