    1931 Willys Street Rod

     



    I've got this guy who wants to sell me his willys street rod. It's been in the garage collecting dust for 8 years now so he's ready to let it go. It's a 1931 Willys 5w rumble seat coupe with an all steel very stright body, 3-1/2 chop, electric steel sunroof, Heat treated glass with power windows, full fendered with running boards, 70 454 Bored 60 over to a 468 with Roller rockers, aluminum heads, stainless headers and exhaust, TH400 B&M, Custome made Budnick wheels with matching steering wheel, 12 bolt posi, 5 link suspension, Koni Coil overs, Power brakes and steering with a custom Mustang II rack set-up (nice looking), good paint and interior, Porsche seats (light coral with tan tweed cloth like what was real popular about 15 years ago) He has spent an easy $60K building this car doing all of the work himself and has $9K in receipts for the engine alone with a 540HP dyno ticket. The car was done right. It needs detailing and some very minor touch-up to be smokin. He'll sell the car as-is for $25K or rolling for $19K. I can't find a lot of info on 31 Willy's rods. What do you guys think?? What's this thing really worth???

    I like just about any pre-war Willys. This one sounds great. Got any pics?

    Willys

     



    I'm going over this weekend to take some pics and hear it run. Needs a new battery. It looks great even covered with dust. I also like the fact that is is rare and not likely to be a million of them at the next cruise or rod show. It also has a nice balanced body line. Not as nice as a 32 Ford but nicer than a Model A. I'll probably just get it detailed out and running smooth and run it for a month or two and sell it. It's not really my cup of tea but I wouldn't mind cruising in it for the summer.

    Sounds like a really nice car, Dusty. If it's put together right I would think you would be more than getting your money's worth. Advertise it to the right peeps and you should be able to turn a buck or ten on that one. Anxious to see some pics.
