Features 1937 to 1942 Willys Picture Thread

Be still my beating heart....

 

Even for a hot rodder like me, I agree, they are a beauty in their stock form...

 

A couple of mine.

Hurst and Wuerts 1963 Pics. Fred Hurst 1967

 

Fred was a local racer, I always loved his candy red cars.

 

I do believe that that is Gene Altizer in the other lane.

 

From Idaho...Anyone know where this car is today?

 

Dave:

Is this your coupe you've been working? Very nice. If not, I'd love to see an update on yours.

Mark

 

here are a few more

 

and another batch,
sorry if any are repeats

 

Mark, nope its not mine. I am still working away on mine, just cant seem to get it together since I became a dad again. My wife works two jobs and my little girl does not like the garage. This is what I started with, did a complete frame off rebuild, I took this picture in 2004 before I blew it apart.

 

I think I have that pic. I was hoping you had some more recent pics, even if it's not completely put together. I know it's going to be an awesome car when it's done.

I know what you mean about being a dad. I have two little boys, 7 & 10, and if they or my wife doesn't need something, then it's the house. The fun stuff like the Willys project has to take the back burner more often than I'd like (lol).

 

Couple more stockers, 41 woodie and a 42 coupe with running boards.

 

This is Fred Hurst's old car.

 

Some Solo Willys!

 

How About A Good Solo Pickers Show?

 

These babies were born for the straight axle nosebleed stance!

 

I love cars that have a long history, and here's a perfect example. It started out as Ron Regier's car, then to Grasso & Mills, eventually made it Jay Souza who raced it in AA/GS in the late 80s and early 90s, and finally purchased and converted to street use by Dennis Johnston.

 

traffic61......Here is how the Tequila Sunrise coupe looks today. I believe it was recently put on the street by the same guy who used to race it.

 

Pics from the Willys gathering at the NHRA Museum in 2010....

 

Aaron Bedrosian's awesome 39 coupe. Daily driver with late model crate Hemi....

 

Sure am glad I have one of these cars.....
