1960
Hello,

We started with a faded, blackish color, old 1940 Willys Coupe we found in a lady’s backyard for the B/Gas and C/Gas classes at Lions Dragstrip. It was stock and we had to do our first real, backyard build from stock to SBC running gear and a LaSalle transmission. At the drags, we were impressed with the K.S. Pittman’s red Willys Coupe as he mowed down most of the competition in those early years.

That Willys coupe gave us enough inspiration and we made ours fit our teenage budget. It was the most fun we had, because it was from an old, raw, stock coupe and we made it a fast hot rod built for drag racing and possible cruising around, later.

My brother’s idea was to get the Willys 671 SBC set up running well, then we would get it finished in paint and upholstery. We were getting it ready for our goal of the U.S. Nationals in Detroit, the following September. The Willys was running really well and we started to get the other “go faster” speed stuff ordered.

possible variations
We spent the months of June-July tuning, racing and getting everything just right for our build. The months were spent on setting up our finances and ordering parts for the final goal. (sponsored or otherwise) The finished product had to be ready for the U.S. Nationals at Detroit. Our final necessary speed parts were already on order and some were waiting in Los Angeles for pickup. Locally, we were agonizing about what is to be, the final paint color. My brother wanted yellow and I wanted silver.
