MAGIC MUFFLER Posted July 8, 2015 Posted July 8, 2015 I started this Willys Pickup in 1988. I was building ( starting ) several back in the day and when we moved, many went into boxes and stored for yrs. Many on the work bench now waiting for me to get back on them and finally try to do something. The decals are something I never had for this one though and I'm not sure how to do them. One day I can try and finish it for the shelf. With about a dozen on the bench, it's pick and choose which one I'm in the mood for! Bob Tietz ran this truck in 1977 and I fell in love with it ( I was about 17 yrs old then street/drag racing ). He was running 9.62s et and 138mph. Thought I would give it a go and this was as far as I got. I still have the magazine article when I bought it in '77. Real truck is a '40 but a '41 front end. Lots of dust on this one and soon it will go through a little cleaning..( I'll probably pull it apart, sand polish etc etc )

bobthehobbyguy Posted July 9, 2015 Posted July 9, 2015 Really good start. I agree needs to be finished.
Belair2k Posted July 19, 2015 Posted July 19, 2015 I like it. Oh, and you build at the about the same rate I do!
