A Couple Willys Trucks

Robin emailed me the other day asking how rare Willys trucks with tow packages are. Before answering her question, I did some searches to make sure my answer, which was yes, was correct. That's when I came across these two pictures. One is a beautiful Willys Tow Truck and the other is entirely odd ball.

This is a picture that is being auctioned on eBay:

There's a Willys wrecker rusting at an old service station near me. I don't think it's the same tow package as the one you have pictured. I did ask them once about the owner - it was the previous owner of the station, and they told me that I should call his widow. I'll try to get out there in the next couple of weeks for pictures and details.
