Projects 1940 willys coupe, keeping it

heres my willys coupe I had for sale but no takers, so im finishing it up and its coming along nicely. put real willys chassis under it, willys dash, front A pillars with hinges, rear floor and fender wells, winshield wiper bulges, car looks like a steal car now, heres a little slide show of how its going.

 

just had the lettering done today

 

Looks awesome Bill!

 

Looks great to me,but a change of wheels on the front would look better IMHO. HRP

 

Yeah!!!
Aren't you glad no one bought it ?

 

Almost driveable, patina looks pretty good to me.

 

Great lettering job, '60s style looks authentic and reminds me of my youth at the So Cal tracks. Going to be a fun ride.

 

Cool

 

The new paint looks good, usually I'm not a fan of faux patina but that is tastefully done.

 

yes I am now ! lol

 

thankyou, heres after I made it look even older.

 

hit post reply before I put pictures on....

 

thanks, I really like building these barn find cars!!!!

 

those are from 1965, they have the patina I like. theres so many cool wheels out there maybe i'll switch them up later

yes ive got the hemi in it and it fits like a glove, lol just got my side chrome in from willys supply out in California, nice stuff ! got light blue tinted lexan windows im having cut coming on Monday and a clear windshield, should look pretty cool. heres a couple pictures of the hemi going in....have all my engine and trans mnts done (not pictured)ive got a genuine steel floor im putting in after I get all the ladder bar and frame gussets and cross members welded in...

 

its getting there...im glad you guys on here like it, one person on here couldn't figure putting all that time and effort into a glass car but I thought "it should turn out alright"

 

looks great. all the time you put into looks plenty worth it. very nice details

 

Lol that's because they lack vision.
You pulled off what others try

 

Awesome build.
