DeeCee Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 (edited) I wanted to do something different with a Willys, as everybody either does them as drag or tough street .. including myself. I wanted to drop it, chop it, and custom rod it, some will like it, some won't, but that is the best part about modeling.. IMAGINATION.. Edited June 2, 2019 by DeeCee
TarheelRick Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 Looks really good, the chop is subtle and I really like the suicide doors. Because of the rounded top of the Willys I know that chop was a real trick to accomplish, but you did a fine job.
BeakDoc Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 You had me at suicide doors. I dig everything about it!
Phildaupho Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 I was not sure what I was going to see when I opened this post but I was pleasantly surprised. I really like your kustom.
bbowser Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 That's a beauty! I really like the 3 chrome strips on the fender covers, very Art Deco!
espo Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 Great looking build. I like the Art Deco looking rear skirts. Looks like a smooth '50's Kustom at first glance and then you look under the hood and now we're Pro Touring.
misterNNL Posted June 2, 2019 Posted June 2, 2019 Very nice to see a Willys built in the low and slow style instead of the all to often(IMO) nose high gassed style. The body mods you selected are very well done and remind me of the Lincoln Zephyrs of the '30's. Thanks for sharing your talent with us.
DeeCee Posted June 3, 2019 Author Posted June 3, 2019 Thank you all very much, and i'm glad there are others who appreciate something different.
Tom Geiger Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 Very cool indeed. I like to see different ideas on tried and true classic cars. There is nothing that would keep anyone from building it in 1:1, and it would drop jaws at any car show!
Peter Lombardo Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Very nice and unusual. The chop turned out very well, subtle and very convincing.
olschoolkid Posted June 5, 2019 Posted June 5, 2019 I'm really digging this car. I think it makes a nice alternative to a custom style Zephyr as stated before or perhaps an alternative to a 40 Ford.
Modlbldr Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 (edited) I like it very much. I was pleasantly surprised how well this style fits the Willy's when I did mine. I chopped the roof on mine too. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. It was only my second chopping attempt. http:// http:// Later- Edited June 6, 2019 by Modlbldr
