The Super Hurricane is a pretty common engine in Willys Wagons and Pickups. It was the standard engine in those applications for quite a few years. The transmission (Borg-Warner T-90 3-speed) and transfer case (Spicer 18) are very common, they were used in almost everything Willys made then. Probably worth a couple hundred bucks to the right guy depending on the condition they're in.

If the engine you are refering to is the 226 cid flathead 6, they are pretty hard to find. They probably arent worth a huge amount of money, but for sure there are people that want them. One of my friends and a 62 willys pickup with one of those engines, and he has enough parts to build about 5 more engines. lol The part thats the hardest to find is a non cracked exahust manifold, that alone is worth a big of money. (or a 2bbl intake, they were only used on kaisers for like 2 years)
