While you might think the crossover segment is a new thing, this 1953 Willys Station Wagon begs to differ. This is a terrifically restored classic that has style, character, and a unique design that is fully on display. It's the kind of detailed setup where you'll love everything from the basket weave-style inserts to the vintage radio that's still cranking out tunes. So take some extra time to see how this one turns back the classic with a true time capsule kind of fresh presentation.

You can tell the goal on this one was to be true authenticity with maybe just a little extra dash of flair thrown in the mix. After all, we're not sure Willys ever could get their finish to look this nice. And they took the time to get the little things right like the later in-pillar tail lights, the wraparound rear bumper with Willys logo in it, and wood slates in the floor. Plus, we don't know the last time we ever saw an authentic AM radio in these, and this one has had the internals updated to be a modern AM/FM unit. Starting to get the full picture on this restoration? This is the cool classic presented with a ton of vintage charm and even true cruiser fun. So if you like being rare and distinct, don't miss this Willys. Call today!!!
