Upper Middle Petrol Head:

For those of you who are late to the party, this is Part 2 of When Too Many Datsun 120Ys are Barely Enough .   There’s a link to Part 1 at the end of this post in case you feel the need to also check out the really cool 120Y lift back featured there.

And now that I've lost the remainder of my already very modest readership, we can move on to discuss this very nice early- to mid-1930s Willys 77 pick-up, photographed at November 2022's instalment of Hobart's Classics by the Beach.  According to Wikipedia ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willys_77 ), it's powered by a 2.4 litre four cylinder engine that gave what in its day was considered excellent fuel economy - just short of 30 mpg - and allowed for a top
