DynaMike ◊ 2009-07-31 10:44	That would be very interesting

chris40 ◊ 2009-07-31 11:29	Um ... I'm inclined to think pilou's right. Willys (other than Jeeps) are a bit out of my experience, but I've had a look at Google Images and this certainly looks a lot like a Willys 77.
DynaMike ◊ 2009-07-31 11:53	That IS a surprise... such a narrow car being American. Just before the war the (newer) model "38" was built in Amsterdam; is there anything known about building Willys cars in Sweden?
