Vehicle Description
The 1941 Willys Coupe is an icon in the street rod scene. So when
you can show up in a big bad red classic with a big bad
supercharged 383 V8 that should be enough, right? Well no, when you
pay for premium, you get it, too. That's why this is one of the
slickest builds we've seen in our showroom.
The red paint that's grabbing all of your attention is courtesy of
a true investment in a professional hand and plenty of modern
clearcoat. The result is a devilishly delicious finish that looks
like you dipped your coupe in candy before coming to the car show.
Of course it helps that this custom build started with a premium
Outlaw Performance body built on one of their extra durable
chassis. But for this red devil, the details are what really count.
The door handles are shaved (you open them by remote) and there's
no superfluous chrome, so that keeps your focus on the iconic
electric shaver grille, and that bold blower popping out of the
hood. It's butter-smooth in the rear where the flush mounted panel
at the bottom provides the lights when you need it, and remains
sinisterly dark when you don't. Some cars try to hide their
aggressive stance, but on this one, those swoopy fenders can barely
contain it. The iconic Weld Draglite wheels look fantastic on the
front, and the rear sport wheels are there to give strength to
where the massive 18-inch wide Mickey Thompson rubber meets the
road.
Open the door, and this coupe looks like a comfortable place to
conduct some business. In between the low-back leather bucket seats
is a custom center console that houses the Hurst shifter and
AM/FM/CD stereo. The black and chrome theme continues on the door
panels with bright armrests and controls for the power windows.
This even flows onto the tilt steering column with three-spoke
wheel. But the dash is bright red and acts as a way to focus all
your attention on the full set of AutoMeter Pro-Comp gauges. They
even glow red to draw your concentration at night. So you know
there has to be something special under the hood, and that is a
huge understatement.
We suggest grabbing some sunglasses before inspecting the engine
bay. The pulleys, water pump, valve covers, alternator, hoses, and
nearly every other component has been polished for an
attention-grabbing shine. But while the appearance is meant to draw
people in, the full build is designed to blow their doors off.
That's a 350 cubic-inch V8 punched out to a 383 with a Dyers 6-71
supercharger proudly sitting on top. But this motor is a full build
designed to handle a ton of extra power. That's why it has great
performance components like Summit Racing aluminum heads, dual
Quick Fuel four-barrel carburetors, high performance ignition
system, Milodon extra large oil pan, aluminum radiator and an
electric fan. The long tube performance headers feed the dual side
exhaust pipes. So you'll love dialing in the rumble next to your
ear using the durable Muncie-style four-speed manual transmission.
This feeds the Strange SS Street Axle with Currie 9-inch rear
w/4.32 gears for great power take-offs. This is a true performance
package that's easy to live with thanks to features like power
steering, tubular A-arm independent front suspension, and strong
four-link rear end. Plus you've got unbeatable stopping power of a
performance four-wheel disc brake package.
This is an amazing unbeatable street rod in every way - from its
stellar appearance to the big blower V8. You know how special this
high quality build is, so better get your hands on this one before
it's gone! Call now!!
