Hot Rods 1941 Stocker Willys coupe found

You do not belong in this group if you pro street that car! Go out and buy a glass gold chainer kit car.......

 

I can't believe that it took until the third page for someone to ask for more pics after just one teaser pic at the start of the thread.

Hell yeah we need more pics.

 

Please tell me that this is a joke

 

what about leaving the car stock since the car last night at Russo and Steele just went for 175K and then do my other gasser car just like I built this plastic model car but slightly different engine?not sure yet

 

you***** !! nice car,

 

Congratulations!! Treat it well, and don't let it get stuck on the "back burner". Mikenpam

 

Hopefully, there's ONE more left somewhere that I'll be fortunate enough to find! LOL!!

 

ok lol mike I look every day and still will be for years to come.to me the willys Is the best damn streamlined looking car ever made.just to me that Is.some agree some dont

 

what's a stock willys firewall go for these days? It has to be one of the rarest parts in existence

 

Damn nice car, Is "for sell" a Missouri thing?

 

I was just kiddin' you on the "for sell" opposed to "for sale" thing, nothin' else.

 

h-heee that was good! Man what a SCORE!!! Bookends...

 

Thats what has happened to all the sedans, robbed of parts to rebuild old coupe gassers.

 

Nice Willys find ! Congrats.

 

Congrats on your new find. As for what to do with this car, it seems to me a part of owning these cars is maintaining their history be it stocker or race car. In this case it appears your new find being a stocker is it's history.

 

90% of the competitive gassers had the whole cowl cut completely off and a piece of sheet metal riveted in for the firewall.

Factory firewalls and cowls are for stockers and street rods.

 

shweeeeeeeet!

 

Is this the one the guy in Hershey has been trying to sell for the last 3 years? Has been on eBay at least twice and was at the Hersey meet last year?

 

I thought it looked familiar I had the craigslist ad emailed to me the other week.

GREAT SCORE !!!!!!
I passed on a complete 37 coupe in the 80's for $1500.00 , been kicking myself ever since , DUMB , DUMB , DUMB . But I did finally got the 31 model a coupe that my uncle left with at parents house for many years (that I played in pretending to drive it )until my uncle came and took it to kansas . Not a willys but hey , it's mine .

 

Man o man i've got to keep a closer watch of craigs list.

 

lol It's too bad the price changed while I was on my way to get the car huh?I had so much trouble and stress getting the car and driving home through weather that you could not see 5 foot In front of you that the car wont be sold If I was offered 50K right now.big rig diesels were passing us then wrecking off to the side of the road I about lost my dually and the coupe 10 times.heres a pic.actually very lucky to be alive.

 

still no pics?

 

heck, the cat is out of the bag now. No more fun.

 

hey bob did you ever get the 99 K asking price out of your car?

 

pics have been posted then I removed them.

 

nice story.

 

I was fortunate to get the Hot Rod Willys sold to a super guy with an awesome collection. No, I did not get $99k, but when I sold the car he traded me, and the car that was traded on the trade-in, I ended up with $98.5k. And the fun of the build, the shows and the racing is priceless.

and last, but not least, the friends and fellow Willys-lovers I met is invaluable.

 

I like you new purchase, why delete the photos? You have every reason to be proud.

 

sounds great Bob I know what You mean I talk with a few fellow willys lovers all the time and they are cool people.I now have 2 coupes,1 truck,and a 40 sedan.so my collection continues to grow about every week now.
