Description of 1928 Willys Knight Model 56 |
Our Detroit Showroom is proud to offer a super rare 1928 Willys-Knight Model 56. Willys-Knight automobiles were produced between 1914 and 1933 by the Willys-Overland Company of Toledo, Ohio. Production began with a four-cylinder model which was priced in the $2,500 price range. The Willys-Knight employed a Knight sleeve valve engine, generally four- and six-cylinder models. In 1915, Willys moved assembly of the Willys-Knight to Toledo, Ohio, but continued manufacturing the engines in Elyria. Willys-Knight enjoyed a production run average of 50,000 cars per year after 1922. Willys also purchased Stearns-Knight of Cleveland, Ohio, which also used a sleeve valve Knight Engine, making that marque the crown jewel in his growing automotive empire. Willys-Knight production ended in November 1932 (model year 1933) when the company, in receivership, stopped building higher priced cars, and instead focused on the manufacture of the inexpensive but durable Willys 77. Willys-Knight automobiles were the pinnacle of American Luxury cars and carried very hefty price tags for their time. This Willys-Knight has withstood the test of time and makes for a great addition to your collection. The nostalgic feel behind the wheel of this Willys-Knight is an emotion that cannot be replicated. There aren’t many of these gorgeous Willys-Knights around but this one is ready for its new home.
