Title: New Willys
Post by: WillysTom1 on March 08, 2020, 03:11:21 PM

   We might as well save up our pennies and get a new Willys. Hope that my copy and paste works OK.

This appears to be out of Brazil for the domestic market and not for export.  The Interlagos series were the sportier cars that Wills-Overland du Brasil produced in the old days.

This is from 2015 and was based on a design inspired by a Renault Alpine A108. The work was done in Italy and 110 were planned for production. The video is from its introduction in Bolonga.

This somewhat related link about Willys/Kaiser prototypes posted over on the OldWillys forum, as well as mention of the above Italian supercar and the Brazilian Capeta concept sports car produced shortly before the Ford buyout.

That article provides endless links to even more great articles and pictures.
Those are "keepers" for any Willys fan.
Thanks.
