History 41 Willys Gasser found?

I am fairly certain that this is the car. https://eastcoastdragtimeshalloffam...ollie-olsens-will-a-meaner-remains-a-mystery/

 

A gasser with AC. That's a new one. Wild section job. This is a tough one for @anthony myrick

 

Gotta respect the Accel Super coil…

 

Many things happen to cars over the years...

 

I'd sacrifice a testicle for that!

 

I offered both

 

I'm not a fan of the section job, but a nice gasser anyway. Are the body panels steel?

 

I bet he'd drive it.

 

Not sure, the body certainly appears to be.

 

so when did it get sectioned? The rear fenders look right, though.

 

Agreed, same with the front end.

 

The sectioned job ruined it…

 

The custom guy in me can overlook that! I've long thought about building a Willys custom, even if it were glass.

 

If that is that old gasser, it has been dramatically changed, Sad. Still aWillys however.

 

Anthony must take a lot of Beano because he is an anti-gasser!

 

Not if it sits low?

 

That's a hard no for me and I really like Willys coupes, that section job did no pleasures to that car.
I harkened back to my high-school days of watching the cheerleaders tell the opposing school you're UGLY .... U - G - L - Y ... you're UGLY !

 

That would be a labor of love

 

This isn't a thread of if you like it or not, this is about figuring out if its Ollie Olsons car.

 

If you look the rear fenders are about the right location the rest of the body has been sectioned. Looks like raised fenders.
Looks kind of like a pro-mod body

 

The West Palm Beach on the doors, the colors, headlights,the hood latch at the grill center, there also appears to be a similar or same latch on the passenger side of the hood just fwd of the door hinge.

 

All those details stated above, plus the font on the class letters. The G is the same on the A/G and the current C/G. Too coincidental not to be the same car.

 

Just another short zig zag in a thread, that's what happens when sane minds call out the s#/t that some morons are capable of doing, it's a Willys coupe for f#@k sake, possibly the last one on earth.
Luckily, the new crop of fools will be honing their skills on Suburus', Prius' and Cubes.

 

how bout them apples...

Well folks there we have it!

 

The front-end was aluminum.

 

WOW, well...that sure is some compelling evidence. What a cool find!

 

Mr Olsen should be taken out back and severely beaten

 

I never cared for the hood scoop treatment but my above comment had no reflection on Ollie.

 

Maybe it rusted off at the bottom or his trailer had a short ceiling.
