    I found this recently!

    I think I am most likely overwhelmed with projects at this time so these may need to be sold but it sure would be fun to build them. I think the coupe would be a cool ratty hot rod, bullet holes and all.

    Did you buy them all or just the mangled coupe? I'm looking for another one to build. Can probably only afford a sedan

    I also bought this front end with the deal.

    He has a ton of 1930's plymouth coupe bodies and others for sale, his dad died recently and he is priced AMAZING!

    I have a friend that has a door for sale but I would love to find a thrashed SET of doors and build a running hot rod out of the coupe.

    Beater works for me!
     
  20. LOL first off cool find, I hope you are not in over your head money wise, I have found some of the neatest stuff on the planet just rusting away and the owner thought that it was .9999 pure gold. ;) Anyway neat find. I really like the pickup.

    Now as for the bullet holes, I think were I in your situation I would repair the holes learn some racial slurs and cruise South Central or find my way to Compton and make my own bullet holes. ;) Of course I am real big on making my own history with a car, the past be damned. :D

    No, but that's a great idea!!

    Most of it arrived today but of course my camera is in the shop until tomorrow. The truck cab has not a dent or rot anywhere.

    That pickup cab looks perfect and the coupe needs some love. It's hard to find a Willys stash like that for sale these days.

    Buy it,Buy it all!!! the yellow paint on the back of the cab makes it look like it belongs with the '37-'38 front end.

    I may sell the coupe and keep the truck or vice versa. Or both, I think I'm becoming a hoarder.
