Summary

[edit]
Description

In 1908, John Willys bought the Overland Automotive Division and in 1912 renamed it Willys-Overland Motor Company. Production of the Willys-Knight ended in 1933. The Willys 77 was introduced in 1934, replaced by the Willys Americar in 1937. Built from 1937-42, the Americar was available in either sedan or coupe, in base Speedway, mid Deluxe and top Plainsman, a Deluxe Woody Wagon and pickup truck were also available. Production ended in 1942 because of the war, Willys was one of the companies awarded a contract to produce the highly successful Jeep. Original engine; 66hp 2.4 Go Devil 4 cyl

Critical four-cylinder engine failures, lack of reposition parts and the sheer lack of assistance from Willys turned many Americars into perfect targets for the nascent hot rod community
