- Purchased October 29th 1951 from Ray Barker Motor Company in El Paso, TX by Fredrick Love for use on the Love’s Ranch in Organ, NM. This spread was originally owned by legendary New Mexico lawman Pat Garrett who was assassinated (shot in the back) in 1908 near the property. The land was bought from Garrett’s family by a neighboring rancher who later sold it to Dr. Jerome D. Love, M. D.



- The “Love” Willys was put to work for ranch chores hauling hay bales, windmill vanes, saddles, and went on deer hunts and escorted folks who came out to visit from the city. The Willys took cub scouts on field trips and survived, trained teenage drivers, went to a high school prom, delivered newspapers and survived. Graduation from the University of Texas at El Paso and then after resting in the dry desert for over 40 years, the Willys now shows you what a true survivor is made of.



Showing its virility, it’s needing some new seals and such. The Willys acquired some mesquite tree thorn scratches, venison blood stains and some various rock scrapes from the San Andreas Mountains where it traveled along wagon ruts and cattle trails. All body, frame, engine, aged paint patina, and bumpers are original to the vehicle when it left the Willys factory assembly plant in Toledo, OH in September 1951. Bearing matching numbers, the mileage is accurate for this one-family owned vehicle.

6 volt electrical system
