Great show! Thanks to Seth and crew for all the hard work. It was nice to put a few names and faces to screen names. Awesome to catch up with old friends and make new ones.
I didn't do any horse trading this year but other than a few unique actually rare pieces vendor prices were extremely reasonable. Some even free, some gave out free beer! Reinforces my belief Jeep people are good helpful people paying forward to the average hobbyist. Thanks everyone!

As Bob said, "Thanks again to The WINDY HILL GANG and all their efforts that make this such a pleasant event." Thanks to Seth & Heather for for their hospitality Sat. evening at Windy Hill. That is a bit of heaven if only for an evening. I missed a few of the regulars but did get to visit with old WILLYS friends & I made some new ones. I got a nice call from Bruce Mullen that made my day as we always try to park next to each other. I found a pair of marker light rings for you Bruce!
Thanks to Bob W. for the air cleaner too!
I do hope all had safe travels & I can hardly wait until next year with the Great WILLYS folks at Kempton, PA.
Stay Healthy & Happy Trails!

My first ever visit to the Great Willys Picnic. This was my 4th event this spring seeking parts and making friends and I did great on both with hard to find and hard to ship items. As I’m sure others did as well. The venders I purchased from said they had a great day too moving their extra stuff. Thank you to the staff and promoters. The flea market venders were numerous with a great selection. The most small and large venders of all 4 events. With NO vender fee individuals with just a few items were able to just show up and set up and move their parts. The variety, quality and originality of Willys vehicles was astounding. Just an overall great event meeting some great folks. 
If you’ve never attend this event, give it a go next year. I’ll be back despite an overnight and 11 hour round trip from Ohio. It was worth it  👍😀
