    Amazing find! '33-'36 Wiilys coupes and sedans are rare, but that
    panel body is just about the '"rarest of the rare" Willys body styles
    for those years! I 've heard of - but have never seen - not even
    in picture form - that there was supposdly a Willys Cabriolet body
    style in 33-36 that was supposdly rarer. That panel may be rusty
    but is worth saving almost no matter what it takes! For 500 bucks,
    no matter what it needs, you stole it!

    I'll post more pictures of the Willys along with the rest of the stuff he has tomorrow morning. He has maybe 30 or so other cars. Most are kind of rotted. Some may be repairable. He really doesn't want to part out the cars.

    Those junk yard dudes sure like there fork lifts, they move everything with them even when grandma comes they get the lift to move her around.LOL. Wow good deal at $500. Even if it is rusted.Thats why we have welders.That is cool the yard sells there old stuff reasonable.I have seen so many think they are sitting on gold, saying we got it you don't! so pay up sucker.

    Damn! Look at the rust! I can see why all you guys are so amazed at condition of the cars down south!!!! What a mess. That stuff would have been crush along time ago down here.

    At least the panel will be saved.

    Your right. Example: he wants $350 for the whole Teraplane. Sell the grill for a hotrod for that much and keep the rest for yourself.
    BTW, he said he's working with some guy on the Hemi so it may not be for sale.
