Nice find! Ever thinking of going the non gasser style? I would love to see a willys dropped a bit with a hopped up 4 banger. C'mon, we can't make them all gassers! LOL.
Let's try to answer some questions. I have known about this car for about 10 years. A mate of mine has been trying to buy it for as long as I can remember and when the owner decided to sell it the timing was wrong for him. So I jumped in, we just couldn't let it go. So just a case of right place right time. Or as the wife looks at it, big idiot in the wrong place again.😜 Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!

We have a friend in Denton Texas with an original Willys Coupe......he dropped a V-6 in it I believe with mods.......can afford to drive it......it doesn't break all the time......he said on the highway it really gets smooth around 75 mph. Im not pushing the V6.......but build it so you can enjoy driving it...is what it is all about !! Great find !!!
That Willys looks super solid, nice dash! You have all the hard to find parts in steel, nice score! 37WG Posted using the Full Custom H.A.M.B. App!
Looking forward to this build however you do it so long as it's not modern pro-street and the nose sits higher than the tail. Then opinions are like butt'holes -everyone's got one.
that is so cool, can't wait to see how you violate its sanctity and turn into something like everyone else has! viva la ba-ba-ba!
