Description of 1940 Willys Americar

This is a good running Willys gasse, registered and titled in my name as a 1940 Willys coupe using the original 40 VIN tag on a 40 Willys chassi, with a 41 center section . Completely street lega, everything is new or rebuilt . It rides like a Gasser .
This started as a wrecked Willys Gasser Coupe I found in Maine, The car was crashed bad to the point the rear of the roof was ripped off. So i rebuilt the body shell with a piece from a fiberglass body I had . The back half of the roof is from the glass car everything else is steel. The fenders front and rear are stee, hoo, center section,trunk lid is stee, the doors i made from sedan doors and are steel also . Grill and headlights are original not aftermarket .The floors are made from steel sheet metal .

The chassis is a mint 40 Willys chassis sand blasted and painted flat black. All new springs and chassis parts were used with a WAC custom built front axle . Ford spindles and disc brakes on the front . The 57 olds rear axle is all new rebuilt Posi 30, 31 spline axles and brakes . Vintage Cragar SS wheels front and rear with new cheater slicks and skinny front runners.

The interior is a set of buckets from Summi, they are new and comfortable . Tuck n roll door panel, kick panels and behind the seat, headliner is roughed in place . Series 60 B&M shifte, old SW gauge, seat belt, 4 point cag, functional gas pedal from an old drum se, yes it is what you use to wack the throttle . All new tinted glass and channels rubbers etc .

The motor uses studs top and botto, oil pump was ported and polishe, I run the blower at 5 over to keep it from heating up in the florida heat ..
