This incredible 1940 Willys coupe is the kind of custom most of us only dream of owning. With a performance crate V8, four-wheel discs, huge rear tires, a luxury A/C interior, and beautiful bright paint this is an all-eyes-on-me street rod.
You already know the iconic presence the right Willys rod brings to the show, and you instantly know this is that kind of machine. The two-tone sliver and burgundy have a deep metallic shine from a quality investment. And the large orange strip not only has terrific custom flames, but it also highlights the hallmark full-length body crease that meets the rear fender. And because this is a high-quality fiberglass body, it provides a proper canvas for all this paintwork. You especially see it in the way the light smoothly rolls off the big round fenders. In fact, this is a very smooth machine, so that means no door handles, badges, or excess trim. And this sleek modern take on the body means the areas of brightwork are especially noticeable on the teardrop headlights, split grille (exclusive to the '40), and polished 15-inch wheels.
When you pop the door opener on the key fob, don't forget to notice that the custom paint continues in the door jambs another sign of an upper-echelon build. And these colors continue across the dash for a true uniform feeling inside and out. When you step inside, this coupe looks like a comfortable place to conduct some speedy business. The gray leather bucket seats coordinate with the interior, and they power adjust to your ideal position. This comes loaded with power windows, a tilt steering column, an AM/FM/caste/CD stereo, and cold R134a air conditioning. And while this is comfortable for you and your passenger, the full set of gauges prominently in the center is a signal that this is a driver's machine.
We suggest grabbing some sunglasses before inspecting the engine bay. The pulleys, valve covers, alternator, compressor, and air topper have been polished for an attention-grabbing shine. And the smooth silver firewall only amplifies this. And beneath this style, you're going to find the substance of a 350 cubic-inch ZZ1 motor. This performance crate V8 also features an Edelbrock 650 CFM four-barrel carburetor, an aluminum intake, and Power Pac aluminum heads. Plus, the headers add even more power as they contribute to the rumble of the dual exhaust. This is a total performance package, and so you have a 200R4 four-speed transmission with a 2,400 RPM stall to keep you in the optimal powerband. Making sure this power stays planted to the ground is a four-link rear end with adjustable coilovers. And while this is a street-eating package, there's also much more to the build. After all, the automatic transmission also has highway friendly overdrive. And the aluminum radiator w/electric fan is great no matter if you're performance driving or just in traffic with the A/C running. Plus, power steering and four-wheels disc brakes are always welcomed additions.
