viperchief 43 Posted February 13, 2015 Hi guys! Just won this Wild Willy and it appears to be in really good condition. I have never owned one and I wanted your opinion. Do you guys see anything in the pics that will need attention when I finally receive it? Thanks! 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IBIFTKH 1369 Posted February 13, 2015 The Wild Willy 'Mk1' is a great little truck and that looks like a really nice one. It doesn't look like it's been used much, if at all. Check the tyres, they're 30+ years old and can get dry and cracked (though the tyres on yours look good) and the front grille which is delicate and can break around the winch mounting points. Above all, enjoy it! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grastens 2795 Posted February 13, 2015 Showing off again, are you, viperchief? Still remember that silly bargain on the Willy's Wheeler... No way to tell for sure if it needs work, since I assume no upper chassis pictures were present. However, from here everything appears in good order! I wish I was so certain about my Willy... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

viperchief 43 Posted February 18, 2015 Just received my Willy today! It is in great shape! Glad to see the grill is intact along with the winch. The part that keeps the windshield up against the roll bar is broken ( I can live with that). Very happy with this purchase! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
