WILLYS, WHIPPET

[Willys77]

Just joined the forum and do not see where there are any Willys,Whippet, Overland or "Knight-Engined" autos listed on any of the forums. I know about the Willys Overland Knight Registry but find it odd that there seems to be no mention of them on this site! Thanks!

There's not a lot of them out there.

There is a Whippet on display in the AACA Museum (I think it's a '27 sedan), and we have a '29 Coupe with a rumble seat sitting under the car cover in my dad's garage.

The Whippets aren't a common vehicle, and parts are very scarce. In comparison to a lot of the other cars of that vintage, you won't hear a lot about them because there aren't that many of them. It is a case where there isn't too many people out and about that know anything about them, so conversations pertaining to them are very limited.

Bringing up this topic again, is there nothing on the Willys Whippet on this site, it was a very common car 1926-1931 or so? Thanks

Look in this forum. There are a few mentions of the Whippet. http://forums.aaca.org/forum/81-kaiser-frazer-darrin-henry-j-willys/    Also there is a Knight Engine forum you can check for some info.  http://forums.aaca.org/forum/140-knight-engines/
