Hello, I just jumped on board, but been playing with Willys up here in Maine for about 50 years. My driver is a Red '49 CJ3A and the collection goes on and on from there. I have three other CJ3A Jeeps, one is a Farm Jeep with the Monroe 3 Point hitch. I really enjoy chasing those odd ball accessories that were available as factory approved equipment for Willys products. I am not at all interested in modifying Jeeps and making the mud fly. I've searched old Willys Dealers for wierd stuff and have accumulated a vast collection of Factory Literature to document what was available. Along the way, I started finding out a little about an inside the Willys Factory Christmas Gift Program that went from 1945 to 1949. These "Gifts" were only available to VP and above Executives. Today, these Jeep Model Toys are called Al-Toy Jeeps, and to say that this is a collection is an understatement. It is a sickness as I now have well over a hundred including four complete sets of each model. Other Willys playthings include an Auburn Jeep-A-Trench CJ5, another CJ5 with factory dual rear wheels, a CJ3B with an early Fisher Snow Plow and more Willys PTO devices than I can count. I even have an all Willys junk yard, nothing else allowed. If you like to play with STOCK Willys, let's compare notes. I love to talk Willys. Glenn
