What kind of pickup is this?

I had to capture the screen from a video. If I find one of the font I'll post it too.

Willys Jeep, early 50s, made the same body for 11 years or so.

Yup, Willeys

They also made cars, my dad worked for a Willeys dealership in the 50s. My folks borrowed a new one to drive on their honeymoon in 1951.

They were targeted at the working class. Slogan was, "Anyone can afford a Willys".

One of the mountain men has one called Wilber.

One of my friends parents had a Willies car every time we came to a hill he had to go into 1st gear and crawl up the hill. The little 4 banger just didn't have a lot of power.
My Sister and here husband had a Willies station wagon when they went to the driven and the movies was over it couldn't pull over the ramp so they had to back down to get out.

I had a 1949 willies wagon--yup-no power,so i put a 54 chevy straight six in it---engine was great but the 6 volt starter was terrible.

Chronology:
Successor Jeep Gladiator

The 4-wheel drive Willys Jeep Truck, introduced in 1947 by Willys-Overland Motors, was similar to the Willys Jeep Station Wagon and the VJ-2 and VJ-3 Willys Jeepster. With model designations of 2T and 4T, these trucks were equipped with the 134 cubic inch Go-Devil flathead four-cylinder engine and the three-speed Borg-Warner T-90 manual transmission from the CJ-2A. The truck received a facelift in 1950 and became the 473, with the new "Hurricane" four-cylinder engine as an option. This model introduced the v-shaped front end with five horizontal bars, as well as an updated gauge cluster. The steps on the side of the pickup box were deleted. After 1950, the two-wheel drive model was discontinued. In 1953, the model designation became 475 and the grille bars were reduced to three. A 226 cubic inch six-cylinder 6-226 model was introduced in 1954, and sales of 475 models dropped considerably. The 6-226 was dropped in 1962 in favor of the 6-230 Tornado OHC engine.
The truck was originally sold as a 1-ton 4wd/2wd with a 1/2-ton 2wd becoming available in 1950 (model 473HT). The 2wd half and one ton trucks were discontinued in 1951 and sold as 4wd only. The load capacity was later upgraded but the truck was still sold as a 1-ton pickup.

Engines:
1947-1950 - 134 CID (2.2 L) L4-134 Go-Devil I4
1950-1965 - 134 CID (2.2 L) F4-134 Hurricane I4
1954-1962 - 226 CID (3.7 L) 6-226 Super Hurricane I6
1962-1965 - 230 CID (3.8 L) 6-230 Tornado I6

It was available with only one transmission, the Borg-Warner T-90 three-speed manual, with Synchromeshed 2nd and 3rd gear. A Spicer/Dana 18 transfer case was used on 4WD models. The heavy duty Timken 51540 was used in the early years of production, later being replaced by the Dana 53. The front axle was a Dana 25. With the 4-cylinder engines, a 5.38:1 gear ratio was standard, with 4.88:1 and 6.17:1 optional. With the 6-cylinder engines, 4.88:1 was standard with 5.38:1 optional.
Over 200,000 of these trucks were manufactured.

Walt,
The little 4 banger was no power house but if those folks had to get into 1st gear to get up a hill they were overloaded,needed a tuneup or the engine was worn out.My father had one in the early '50s,'52 or'53,F head 4.Went through points often and ran badly when they got marginal.Other than that it was a tough little car.

A neighbor had one that he used for a hunting truck back in WV years ago. It would go about anywhere or climb about anything, because it didn't have enough power to spin the wheels.

A friend of mine had one of those back in the late 50s. It was a 4 cyl. but he used to pull wagons with 125 bales of hay for his brother who was a farmer.
Low gear/low range and they could really pull.
Later, in the 70s I had another friend with a nice clean Jeep P.U. with the "Hurricane I-6" engine; much, much more powerful and a lot less shifting over the road.
I had another friend with the Jeep 2 wheel drive station wagon. The engine was whipped so he replaced it with a Volvo 4 Cyl. engine that he happened to have. No powerhouse but it was a nice driving vehicle.
Very classic design and still quite popular.

We had one on the farm someone had put a flathead Ford motor in, now that was a fun ride in the mud or snow.

You know? That guy is about the same year and color with different wheels than a guy showed me in his barn a few weeks ago. In his though, a 400 small block bored .30 over, stroked down with a welded up 350 crank. Is about 378 inches now. He fired that thing up, and its pretty stout. He's got some finishing to do, but its a one of a kind near me. Said he found the truck up in Michigan somewhere, bought it, then shoe horned the SB into it.

This past summer a guy passed me going the other direction in a late 60's or early 70's K-30. I don't remember the grill on it for the exact year, but it was a K-30, not a C-30. That's one rare truck. Wish I had it.

Are a lot of goodie oldies out there, thank goodness.

My brother has one made into a crew cab with a 454 Chevy motor in it. Gets quite a few looks going through town.

THere must have been a million of those old Jeep PUs around whe I was a kid. We had an International truck/Jeep dealer in town. PU's, wagons, FC's and CJ5's. Later there were Wagoneers and IHC Travelalls on the same lot. Those Jeep PU's were great old trucks. A little short on comfort and heat but they'd work all day for you. Had plenty of power as I recall, not that you were going to spin the tires or anything, but as much as most of the half ton 6 bangers of the day. Of course some of the trucks I drove had the 6 cyl Jeep engine and not the 4 banger.

looks like a half breed

Ha ha I took me a minute to look at that one . A two tone Forvy or a two tone Chord. Somethin' like that.

hey ,,. I have a 64 jeep- Kaiser -willys pikup I should sell ,,. the 6 cyl . motor is a hoss too

I think it was a law once that every gas station had to own one of those to plow their own lot in the snow.

It was billed as a Fordolet.
