1952 Willys Overland Model 473 Pickup

For Sale
ASK: $38,999
Miles: 2,948
Estimated: $390.27/mo

The Willys-Overland four-wheel-drive pickup helped establish the foundation for America's postwar utility truck market, combining the rugged engineering of the military Jeep with the practicality of a traditional pickup. Introduced in 1947 and developed under the direction of renowned industrial designer Brooks Stevens, the Willys truck became a distinctive alternative to conventional American pickups, offering genuine four-wheel-drive capability at a time when such equipment was far from commonplace. This 1952 Willys-Overland Model 473 Pickup, showing just 2,948 miles, is finished in a rich Burgundy exterior over a Cream vinyl interior, presenting an attractive combination of vintage styling and practical utility. Its distinctive appearance is highlighted by a chrome-accented vertical grille, cream-painted steel wheels, side-mounted spare tire, and a traditional steel cargo bed with a protective bedliner. Equipped with a four-cylinder engine, three-speed manual transmission, and dual-range four-wheel-drive system, this Willys captures the straightforward mechanical character that made these trucks popular among farmers, tradespeople, and outdoor enthusiasts. With its classic postwar design, distinctive color combination, and low indicated mileage, this Model 473 offers an appealing opportunity to own an important piece of early American four-wheel-drive truck history.
