1940 Willys Sedan for sale in Tipp City, Ohio

1940 WILLYS ALL STEEL 4 DOOR SEDAN The Willys Americar was a line of automobiles produced by Willys-Overland Motors from 1937 to 1942, either as a sedan, coupe, station wagon or pick-up truck. The coupe version is a very popular hot rod choice[1], either as a donor car or as a fiberglass model. The car started production in 1937 with somewhat traditional styling, a product of the internal reorganization that turned Willys-Overland Motor Company into Willys Overland Motors. It was itself an evolution of the aging Willys 77. When Joseph W. Frazer joined the company in 1938 he decided that a modern-looking and cheap compact car was the answer for the struggling Willys. Models 37, 38 and 39 gradually evolved into a more Ford-like appearance, culminating in the very much DeLuxe-like 40 model. This all Steel 1940 Willys Sedan Deluxe Custom offered by Blad Boys is rust free and a joy to trek on down the road.
