Willys America Open House July 19th

This year's Willys America Open House will be Saturday July 19th in Cazadero, California. We won't be there this year as we have a family event that same weekend.

There's a Caravan that will also be leaving San Francisco in the morning. You can learn more about their itinerary here.

This is one of my favorite weekends of the year...

This is an event everyone within range should experience. I especially like the caravan North through the streets of San Francisco, stopping at the Golden Gate Bridge picking up a few more Willys and photos of the bridges and Alcatraz Island (if the fog cooperates), then stopping in Petaluma to gather even more vintage Jeeps. Then finally cruising the back roads to the foremost Willys restoration shop on the West Coast. If you want to see one of the widest variety of Willys vehicles in one gathering, this is it! **Steve E.**

It's on my list of events to do, but a family gathering trumped it this year.
