    Great Job Tom!
    I'ts all a matter of taste so don't beat me up fellow Hamber's, but I personally think the 40-41 Willys Coupes are the best looking car ever hot-rodded hands down.

    Just got home from my first long trip with the Willys, drove through Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Netherlands and finally got to England and 2017 Euronats. It was a great trip about 1600 miles oneway.
    Got 3 trophies, long distance and Top ten price at the Euronats and a Top ten price at the following
    pre -72 UK Supernats. It was the best event I ever been to,met a lot of nice people and had a lot of fun.

    Tomastudor that's a great accomplishment! Fantastic car and a driver to boot. I drove my 36 Willys sedan 13,000 mi. across the US and had a blast. Keep on trucking!
