Well, if you missed the spring Willys meet, you missed a great time. 102 Jeeps of various years, models and sizes appeared in the space of three days, along with about 15 vendors selling everything Willys..and even a Kaiser part or two. The meet was less than a half hour from my house so I took in the show and it felt alot like a KF national of old. Over 100 vehicles, more than 200 people at the Saturday evening banquet, and lots of story telling into the wee hours. I sold my 51 Jeepster and it's on its way to Illinois.
If you're a Willys fan then you probably know about the cj2apage, as well as the cj3b page, and the ewillys.com sites. All three site owners were there with the banquet speaker being Derek Redmond from the cj3b page. He gave a very informative talk about the events that led up to the high-hood look of the cj3b. He spoke of Kaiser positively and even included a nice shot of a 53 in his slide show.
I'll post a few pix as soon as I can.
