I removed Image:Willys-Knight1920.jpg and replaced it with a picture from the Willys-Knight page. The image removed has been used for extensive vandalism (including this) and should not be used as attracts too many vandals to this page. 195.188.152.12 10:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

reverted. --86.134.56.248 10:47, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

The replacement image is not public domain, whereas the image you removed is. I have put it back. Blaming a legitimate historical image for the fact that some jackass misused it is inappropriate. -- Infrogmation 14:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with Infrogmation, but I appreciate you were trying to help.--Cúchullain ^t/c 01:20, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pronunciation

I've heard many people pronounce it will-eez—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.188.172.165 (talk)

The correct pronunciation of Mr. John Willys' name is WILL-iss. Will-eez came into use decades later. --Sable232 00:07, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

That's what I've read - "Willis". -Will Beback 06:14, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] '41 Willys

During my rough research into Willys, I have been having a hard time finding information on cars (other than Jeep) from 1940 onwards. However, the 1941 Willys Coupe seems to be one of their most customized models for Hot Rods. What is the base model for the '41 Willys that is so popular with customizers? What was the name of the Willys company when they made it? Where was it originally designed/manufactured? Anyone know? Thanks! --Mongrel 16:04, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
