Was visiting a friend in the city and spotted an MB under cover in Greenwich Village. Who'd have thought you'd see a Willys on the streets of New York.

Well, it is a "war zone" these days after all!

I worked in 4 of the five boroughs for a decade, driving truck. You would be amazed what is hidden in that city. I stumbled upon lots of old cool cars and trucks. I wonder how much of it is still out there. 

Jay Leno found a Dusenberg in NYC. It was in a parking garage, in the same parking spot for 50 years. Pretty cool story!

I'm in NYC regularly.  I think I saw that guy roaring down the westside highway in a rainstorm once.  

I've often thought it would be cool to have a NYC Willys tour, but then I realized that most folks would need to trailer their rig, park and unload, then drive over a bridge/tunnel to get to Manhattan.  Parking trailers would be difficult immediately outside of NYC.  I dunno....maybe someday.
