1960 Willys Surrey Gala PEPSI COLA PROMOTIONAL 2WD GALA 1 OF 100

Vehicle Description 1960 Willys Surrey Gala $45,000 "Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 27th year in the classic and muscle car business. Well, here's another charming bit of American car culture you won't see every day...or ever. These delightful runabouts evolved from the Jeep DJ-3A Dispatcher, the ubiquitous delivery vans used by the U.S. Postal Service. Louis Yocich, a salesman for Willys Export, had seen the Jeeps at Las Brisas resort in Acapulco, Mexico, which were pink with canvas halfcab tops. He figured that a similar Jeep might work at Henry Kaiser's 1,100 room Hawaiian Village Hotel, so the Gala (export) and Surrey (domestic market) were created in 1959. Pepsi then partnered with Kaiser-Willys for ""about 100"" surreys in Cerulean Blue with Pepsi-Cola Yellow upholstery. This charmer is one of those rarities. Beneath the hood you'll find the iconic Willys 134ci I4 ""Go Devil"" engine that conquered the world during and after WWII. Additional features include a 3-speed manual transmission, correct colors, and 6.70-R15 tires wrapped around steel wheels with correct covers. Willys' record keeping was legendarily suboptimal, but the best estimates are ""about"" 1100 total Surrey/Galas and ""maybe"" 100 Pepsi Surreys. This particular vehicle has been identified as a true Pepsi Surrey out of Massachusetts around 2012. Parts of the Cerulean Blue paint appear original, while items like cushions and upholstery seem to be recently restored.
