Vehicle Description
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.
You know how special this high-quality build is, so better get your
hands on this one before it's gone! Call today!!!
