Features 1937 to 1942 Willys Picture Thread

Fremont, not sure why people talk shit about the 80's. I had a great time!

 

How many people know the SW&C car was raced in the 70's with a BBC?.......

 

A couple more covers......

 

Kev:

Your Willys picture collection is amazing. Just when I think I've seen everything, you post up some more obscure stuff that has my jaw dropping. Thanks for sharing. Do you have any more of Burns Waggener's black coupe, or Bill Burch's dark blue pickup?

K.S. and the tribute car/ match racer at Bakersfield.

 

Kind of similar to mine. Still working on the history.

 

Another cool truck, Pontiac powered....

 

Kev:

OMG! You about made me shit a brick with those pics of Burch's pickup. I'd never seen pics of it with the blower and the older light blue paint. That made my day. Obviously the 37-42 cars are your favorite, but I'm sure you've got some cool 33-36 stuff as well. You've got to post some stuff in my thread when you get a chance.

Thanks again!

 

Here are a couple I bought and sold back in the 80's.....







Bought this one for $2,500. Kept all the extra parts and sold it for the same amount. It was hard to sell because everone wanted stock floor and firewall....

 

Bakersfield....

That alley shot could be any alley, anywhere...happens to be Wayne Artega's place (St Louis)...what a neat setting! Iknew Wayne, and he told that those guys stopped there while traveling to another strip back in the day! Wayne's coupe must be there somewhere...lots of quick cars for an alley gathering!
Sad to think that Wayne, Doug, and K.S. are gone! What great pictures!
