I found this 13 part video 'build series' on YouTube. It's not necessarily my idea of a '40 Willys, but I dig it! And for sure, you have to give this guy an "A-plus" for effort imagination and ingenuity - and probably at least a "double-A-plus-plus" for both talent, perseverance and workmanship! Also what great way to use the cast off body shell of a '37 Willys 4-door sedan that most people would pass on!

Thanks for posting mart. Fantastic creativity and a Willys COE - what more could a hardcore Willys guy want!

Just ran across this truck, on Youtube, over the weekend, by accident. Wondered if there was a Hamb thread, that I missed. Seemed like a natural. Incredible vision, by this man. Fantastic use of an other wise ugly duckling 4 dr. And...have seen SO MANY builders ruin the whole package, by screwing up the back of the truck. He nailed it. Love the little details, like double hump rear fenders. Also a big fan of Dodge Diesels, so that sealed the deal for me. JT
