Dr. Cranky Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 Can anyone guess where the grill is from? I still have to add a couple of more wires out of those carb stacks . . . I think the mud is going to bring the whole build together! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Cranky Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Now that all I have left to do on this build is fling the mud, I am hesitating. Does this mean I am turning into a SHINY ADDICT? LOL! NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1930fordpickup Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) Looks great Doc. You have done the workers at the Toledo assembly plant proud . Yes they built the Willys car there before they built Jepps for the war effort. Edited November 23, 2012 by 1930fordpickup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoneWolf15 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Never , ever , say never ! The fact that you are hesitating ? Bwahahahah ! You are becoming a shine addict , my boy ! Lmao ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Thanks, Andy, and thanks Donn. We'll see what happens in 2013. Only the new year will tell what kind of madness will run in my blood. Plus, there are rumors of an impending article in MCM that is supposed to rock the styrene world! LOL. Well, I hear it's like some sort of World Wrestling Federation "DEATH CAGE" type of match . . . I looked here and didn't find anything about this RUST VS SHINY all-out brawl! http://www.wwe.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmvw guy Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 If you were'nt the master at weathering, I would say leave it shiny and clean the tires. The eyeball needs to stay with. Another master piece, I love it!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyjim Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 (edited) Cool build either way, doc. Of course, I prefer SHINY :) It's Friday!! Pizza, popcorn, and WWE Smackdown. Spent the day building. Does life get any better? Edited November 23, 2012 by crazyjim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 I don't know, Donn, I might be done with certain types of cross dressing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimebolt Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 The Willys is looking fantastic Doc. Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hollywood Jim Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Love it Virgil !! Looks great. At first I thought the tires were too big. But not now. After a short while, I decided I like them. ( I would add just a tiny bit of dirt to the fenders and around the bottom edge of the car.)
