“GR Auto Gallery is pleased to bring to market this gorgeous and freshly restored 1959 Willys DJ3a for your consideration. This example is powered by its original L134 “Go Devil” engine paired with a 3 speed on the three manual transmission. This Surrey tribute is not documented as a Surrey but before its restoration at had some parts leading towards evidence of it being one including chrome rear bumper, Willys hubcaps, round dry air filter, front frame cover and steps.
During the restoration the top was new, carburetor was rebuilt, complete brake system was addressed and the drums were turned, the frame was redone and finished with POR15, the gas tank was also cleaned and sealed POR15 tank sealer, new exhaust, new shocks, new tires.”

I haven’t seen one of these for sale for several years (at least).

This is the late Bruce Agan’s former surrey that is being sold by his wife. It’s about as accurate a surrey as you’ll find. I’ve seen less accurate surrey’s sell for much more. See the full story on this Surrey here.

Thanks to Craig for spotting this one. I don’t see the footman loops on the fenders nor the hubcaps. Otherwise looks good to me.

Most of the pics are more of these ‘models’ rather than jeep.

“This showroom-fresh Willy’s Beach Car was the center piece of Johnson Jeep & Willy’s in Riverside, California, for many years. The speedometer shows 200 miles since it has been restored.

From the looks of the restoration, it was done by the Jeep Company many years ago, probably in the seventies.
It needed a new parking break cable when I bought it. I’ve installed “Quick Steer” that has made this a joy to drive with 1 finger.

These DJ 3A Willy’s are impossible to find in this condition. From the paperwork, this vehicle looks to have been a Las Brisas hotel Willy’s (Acapulco). I believe that Elvis Presley once owned a Willy’s just like this one, in coral and pink. He certainly drove one in a few of his movies I have seen.

The jeep is missing the top, but I have a re-manufactured original top-style frame for it. And I have located the material and fringe for the Surrey top. This will be the new steward’s job.

The Willy’s stops, starts and rides as it should.
Books and records from the seventies are yours if you are the buyer.
It definitely has some scratches and patina on it. Come see it if you’d like.”
