Projects 1938 willys coupe project build.

Stated a new project, clipping a 38 coupe on to a sedan cowl and floor and building up from there...

 

You got them hanging from the rafters?Just funning..Looks Good!

 

Here ya go , all exposed and right side up!

Is this not the car that was sold to a guy who was selling it to a broker that was auctioning it off 3rd party or some nonsense



Anyways cool car, cool garage also !

What your plans with this beast ?!?

 

I’d have to call the union hall and get maybe 3 good body men from Fisher body and a Priest to bring one that back ! Your doin a great job , it will be nice when finished .

 

Why? Was there something wrong with the coupe’s original cowl?

That one looks like the one that was sittin in the snow from the newbe askin what it was worth....If it is glad its gettin some love

 

Biulding a old school gasser out of it, sbc with a little 144 blower, the org cowl was twisted bad at the lower bottom on the drivers sideits fix able but still would have had to cut apart to fix so i just started with a good one already matched to its org floor and frame, yes the car was a bit of a job to get bought but in end it worked out well.

 

And also thanks Vandenplas for fixing the pics, it has something to do with my phone when i load from my gallery does it every time...

 

Nice work my friend!

 

Ambitious build, just send that Phillips 66 sign over here to get it out of your way

 

Glad that body found the proper home, looking forward to the build. Bob

 

Mocked up frt end to get measurements for the new gasser axle....

 

You are making great progress and are getting there very quickly. I am looking forward to watching more.

 

Going with 15x4.5 ansen slots up frt and 15x10 ansen slots in rear..

 

Did you Find the rest of that hood ornament lay'n in the mud up there somewhere?

 

No that hood is off of a 4dr i bought.. and parting out.

 

Got my tail pan patch in and in place and did a ruff body set tonight...

 

Amazing work , if I had a pair of Priest’s and a blessing , I could not do that . Again wonderful work keep it up . A+ from me ! That’s says a lot , Im a picky SOB , I call it the way I see it good or bad , no holding back ! You are a gifted person , use your gifts and work safely

 

That really looks good!

Nice...I gotta get up to Crescent and nose around a bit.I once bought a pickup up in Mondamin made from a sedan body. Was really rough. The guy had some other Willys stuff. Did you get any Willys parts from Mondamin?

 

This looks interesting, I have a bit of experience with late thirties Willy’s myself. Realising I would never be able to sell it as is I decided to convert a Sedan into a Pickup nearly a decade ago.

 

No parts from Mondamin, but i do know him, its coming together slower now with the fridged temps...

 

Had a delay in building car with work and no time but have started again, have to do work on the frt of the frame, setting motor and trans whis week end. More to come...

 

Been working on the junkyard willys, getting closer little by little now done to fitting a radiator up front some how.... have a couple different ones to try this week.

 

It’s looking way better and you are making good progress

 

Very cool! Nice job!!

 

Damn it Man ! That is a nice as it gets , I could not do it with 3 Union Body Men and Two Priests
