Features 1937 to 1942 Willys Picture Thread

I could not have said it better!

 

Columbus Ohio Goodguys Nationals.

 

I posted a couple of photos of this TJR ute earlier in this thread. Here are a couple more. The 1940 front clip would not appear to be original to the ute although it has obviously been on there for years. As far as I am aware T.J. Richards did not make Willys bodies after 1937 or maybe early 1938. The bed is much shorter than the Holden and Mitchell bodied coupe utes as there is more cab room in the longer five window body than the three window. Vision is improved too....

As found.

Hey nitrobrother and hambers,on page #2 POST#25 The Stahu N Son speed shop,shop truck hauling the blown willys pickup was mine . Sold the Willys to my best friend its almost redone ill probably paint it for him by spring.I almost forgot about that combo man i have built / owned a bunch of shit . should lay off the beer aaaaa why bother

 

And it has 37 / 38 rear fenders . Do you have any idea whats up with the grill ?

 

Kyle wasn't that red one in Iowa a Kit Car ? Nice build by the look of it .

 

i believe it was a street beast glass body. it was a really well done car with a nice matching trailer.

 

Ya , as most guys know I'm not big on Kit Cars lol I do love a good build though and that car looked real good from what I remember .
I am getting going on my car again and if I could figure out how to post pics I would lol I'm not great with computers .

Thanks guys . I have it figuered to a point . But all my pics will be resized now .

Anyway here's some of my projects ( 2 - 40 Coupes and a 36 Delivery ). And thanks again .

 

I took these pics at Columbus Goodguys in 2007, check out the art deco tach mount, real nice coupe!

 

wow nice little collection!

 

Nice stuff !!!

 

thanks guys . I can't wait till I get something drivable !
That black Coupe at Columbus sure looks high quality ! Wow ! Outa my budget thats for sure ! Love it though , very tastefull .

 

Grille looks like another brand fitted to the 1940 Willys centersection after the center grille divider was removed. For today another 1938 Holden bodied Willys ute....

 

Looks like the Holden bodied cars used a coupe style door with a thinner lip, while the TJR bodies used a sedan-like door. Also seeing both types of rear windows.
WILLYSCOUPE has some nice project cars...don't see drip rails on the coupes...might they be '37 bodies??? Dash that can be seen isn't '37 however.
g-willys

 

made it out the yard today 1:00 MAD Hydros ,LiL Hustler truck lives again !!!

 

snoopy then and snoopy now

 

rocky, damn good looking truck!

 

I'm jealous!!! Love your truck!

 

Beautiful car. Love the chrome trim and handles still on it.

 

Very cool.

 

I love the stance of your truck! Lets see some more!!!!

 

After searching this thread for the best stance I keep coming back to this one.
Plus it looks like it was built from a super nice stocker - all steel - nice trim still in place ….bumping it for coolness factor.
