    1928 Whippet Model 96 Navigation
    Built by the Willys-Overland Corporation of Toledo, Ohio, the Whippet was aptly named - it was small and swift. Introduced in 1926, it was America's smallest car, with a 100.25-inch wheelbase. Two engines were available, a four and a six. The Whippet was in production from 1927 until early 1931.

    The car sold well with over 110,000 units sold in 1927 making Willys-Overland third in United States sales. But with the onset of the Great Depression Willys-Overland focused on a single low-cost car that would become the Willys 77.

    What makes this Whippet unique is that it has never been restored and is a true 'barn find,' having been in storage for many years. The current owner got the car running, but, to his credit, has done little else to it.

    No auction information available for this vehicle at this time.
