1925 Overland Model 91 Roadster

9ci inline-four paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Equipment includes a Tillotson carburetor, Willys-Overland “Triplex” suspension, rear mechanical drum brakes, body-color wood-spoke wheels, a black soft top, a Boyce MotoMeter radiator cap, a centrally mounted “STOP” light, and a rear luggage trunk. This Model 91 was purchased by the current owner in 2022, and it is now offered by the seller on their behalf with a clean Michigan title in the owner’s name that lists the car as a 1925 Willys.

The entry-level Model 91 was offered across several body styles under the Overland marque between 1923 and 1926. The steel bodywork on this example is said to have been fitted with replacement oak framework during the refurbishment, and two replacement fenders were fabricated before it was repainted in blue. Details include a Boyce MotoMeter radiator cap, a split-folding windshield, running boards with Overland-branded step plates, a rear luggage trunk, a single taillight, and a centrally mounted “STOP” light.

AACA National First Prize plaque is affixed to the headlight bar. Body-color wood-spoke wheels are said to have been overhauled by Calimer’s Wheel Shop of Waynesboro, Pennsylvania, during the 2010s refurbishment, and they are mounted with 31×4″ Universal bias-ply tires. A matching spare rim and tire are mounted out back.

The Model 91 rides on a 100″ wheelbase and features Willys-Overland’s “Triplex” suspension, which utilizes a three-point cantilever design with quarter-elliptic springs mounted at angles to the front and rear solid axles. Stopping is handled by rear mechanical drums. The cabin houses a bench seat trimmed in black pleated leather along with color-coordinated door panels.

Black rubber mats line the floors. The wood-rimmed steering wheel fronts a painted steel dashboard housing a Stewart 75-mph barrel-type speedometer and an ammeter. The five-digit odometer shows 17k miles, approximately five miles of which were added under current ownership.

Total mileage is unknown. The 153. 9ci inline-four features a Tillotson carburetor, and it was factory rated at 27 horsepower.

Power is sent to the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission. Filed under: willys , willys-overland
