Heres some pix of a friend Wayne'39WILLZ' 39 Willys G***er!! It's a nice sight & no mistake!! It's going to stay as is,no shiny paint for this one.The narrow country roads of the UK will rumble when this G***er hits the road!!Waynes done all the work on it,it was in a sorry state when he got it.It had been in a lake/river on its side!! BBC engine,TH400,9" rear,Willys front axle w/Ford spindles. The seats are 64 Mustang Theres also a 36 3W w/sbc & a 49 Ford dash,the Chevy Nomad has Corvette suspension & engine w/bags!!Thats Waynes shop!
damn that is nice.. make sure that hood is always latched that would be a scary ride to have that come open.
Nolly, the 36 is the one I found in Ireland a few years ago..it was one of the original early V8 Fords that was slightly hopped back in the 50`s by Vic Outen ..here is a pic of it back in the early sixties parked in the street. and here it is on the way home from Ireland...it was a sorry sight, looking back. Sorry to jump in on your post, but I thought you might like the info...the Willys is nice, is it going to the Hayride at the weekend ?
No problem on the hijack,reefer!! That 36 was a sorry sight,indeed!! He's going to the Super Nats,today!
