    DSC_0427.JPG DSC_0443.JPG DSC_0426.JPG here is my '33 Willys drag car for the street late 60's early 70's style. its mocked up. and i'm finishing the body for paint in about two weeks. bright red. real 60's 70's centerlines, with the small holes in the rear for rim lock bolts. This car was born as a four door sedan, but I like the short stubby sedan delivery.

    i'm thinking about dropping the back about 3 to 4 inchs, and wheelie bars and chute on back. I know its going to pull the wheels

    I've been after my friends 33 Willy's... to no avail! But he might part with his Anglia Drag car...!

    Looks like "Sanderson" cast iron manifolds. A good choice for those that would like some performance,no exhaust leaks and no melted starters.

    That is one cool looking ride and it's kind of got that racing look to it.
    The red color should really fit perfectly.

    Can't wait to see it with the new paint. Are you going to put a name on it or any other lettering?
    Is the paint going to be single stage or BC/CC?

  19. Absolutely the best conversion from 4 door to a 2 door delivery I have ever seen and as others have already stated the look is spot on.

    I'm betting with that short wheel base it's gonna be a whole lot of fun and a handful! HRP
