Hello All, Been a while since I sold my Kaiser, but now I'm back in KFOC with a new to me toy. It's a driver quality '55 Bermuda, only the second one I've really had a shot at in playing with Willys for 60 years. It's a mid production red & white, 226 Flathead with Hydra-Matic which I found in SC. I was deathly ill when it arrived and my buddies put it right into a storage trailer. The snow's so deep up here I haven't been able to check it out much. All we did when it arrived was check radiator contents as southern cars are usually pure water. I'll try to hook on a few previous owner pix, but don't know how it will go. Nice to be back and thanks to the Administrator for fixing my log in problems.

What state are you in? Vermont here. Bob

When you start freshening up your car, keep me in mind. I have a very nice upper grille bar to fit your 55.

Hello friend Joe Frazer, and Hello also to rrdcorvair, Bob.
Yes, Joe, I'll sure need that upper grill bar and keep me in mind for more grill pieces. Look forward to seeing you at The Great Willys Picnic, Kempton, PA on June 9, 2019. Always the most fun a Willys Nut can have in an 8 hour period AND it's all free.
Now, Bob from VT. I'm over the road a bit in central Maine, but have been a Willys vendor at Stowe, VT - VAE Auto Show for more than 40 years. They've moved the show down Route 100 to Waterbury now, but it's a better location on Route 2 west of town. Hope to see you there, August 8,9,10. If the creek don't rise, my Bermuda will be there and hopefully meet up with that dynamite one from Mass which was there a couple years back. That one also took high honors at Hershey in 2017.

Yes, that car belongs to Ed Moriarty in Framingham, Ma. If you like his work on that car you should see his Henry J and Darrin. He also has restored several Crosleys, same quality work. He's been a friend of our family for many many years. We have a summer camp in Porter/Kezar Falls Maine and usually attend the Friday night get-together at the Blast from the Past on Rt5, I think it's in Waterboro. Another meet we try to make is Friends of Parsems in Parsonsfield, nice show. Maybe we'll see you around, we'll be in a 54 Manhattan, or 54 late Special, or 53 Kaiser Traveler, or a blue 1963 Corvair 4dr. (we keep the show folks confused)! Bob (we have a 1955 two-tone blue Willys Aero 4dr waiting for a freshening up - front end troubles).

That's a couple of nice looking cars!
