    A gentleman in New Zealand made a model of the "Filthy 40" Willys. This is an excellent model of the car and really captured where the car got its name. As most off you know we are going on almost a year since my grandfather Pork passed away. Checked my email this morning, the link was passed onto me. Just wanted to share it with you guys.

  4. I don't recall it looking quite so "ratty" back in the day but a nice tribute nevertheless.

    Hi Grant,
    We're glad that you posted this on the hamb so everyone could see what a A1 job this guy did on this model. He has this down to every last detail as you know. We couldn't believe that he even put the mud on it like it had at Indy. He did a fantastic job. Please give us a call sometime so we can get caught up.
