Roland Willis Jr. & Son VW, Burlington NJ

[myk648]

Anybody have any pics or info about this dealership? I was digging in the 63 Ragtop and came across a sleeve holder for your registration. I assume the car was purchased new there. I knew it was NY or NJ. Just wondering. Old pics of the dealership would be sweet! Thanks!

I just discovered a Roland Willis VW sticker on the engine lid of my 66 single cab, hidden under a layer of paint.

I'm guessing my truck was bought there new or at least serviced there. Roland Willis sold this dealership in 1995 to the current owners.

Under the dealer listings. I grew up a few miles away from it. Building used to be on Rte 130 not far from the Burlington Bristol Bridge. Willis moved further up 130 when they opened a Honda dealership. The VW building later became a Toys R Us (I think). When I return to the homeland for the holiday, I'll see if the building is still standing. EDIT: I should probably drive past the old Bachman dealership as well.

Found this stamp in my 74 Ghia’s owners manual.

Ford made lots of Ghias in 1984...

And update to the Roland Willis updates, whether the building is still there? If anyone has a dealership license plate frame or keyfob from Roland Willis I would be interested. Thanks

So, there I was delivering packages on my UPS route today and I found this vintage key ring on the side of the road. Some how this key ring made it from New Jersey all the way to Mancos, Colorado in the four corners. After some searching on google o found this thread. Though you’d guys be interested. It’s now the key ring for my ‘65 deluxe.
