This is a very nice original Unrestored Willy's Overland Whippet that has been in storage for many years. The previous owner purchased the car from the original owners on Put In Bay Island in Ohio. The odometer shows 29,790 miles and is believed to be accurate. The car is equiped with it's original 4 cylinder engine and manual 3-speed transmission and 4 wheel mechanical brakes. I removed the gas tank and had it boiled out. I also cleaned all the gas lines, installed a new electric fuel pump, rebuilt the Zenith carburetor, changed the oil, cleaned the plugs, installed a new battery and adjusted the clutch. This Whippet starts right up and runs like a top. The radiator is the original honey comb style and it is exceptional for the age. The fins are as nice as I've seen on an original car. The interior seat cushions and door panels were reupholstered probably back in the 60's and the dash and headliner are original. The outside top material appears to have been replaced but the top material has a tear in the back where it scraped a garage door. The original wood steering wheel is excellent. The body of the car is very solid with all it's original metal and the paint appears to be mostly original also. The floor boards and the underside of the car look to be in very good shape. The car has jewled cowl lights, interior rear view mirror, side mirror, an early accessory turn signal unit on the steering column and a set of accessory or aftermarket bumpers. The Willys Overland Whippet automobiles have quite a following and are becoming more collectable every year. Original cars like this are not as easy to find as they once were and this one will make somone a fun little driver. Available for your inspection prior to bidding.
