Im currenly going to be showing both a 41 Wyllis Americar and a 41 Wyllis truck both stock within the Amoco Projek a diorama thats in the diorama section now . meanwhile go to Google. Some guy there did a Stock Wyllis using either an A M T or a Revell Wylis coupe . The parts needed to make a stock car pretty much can be raided from a 1940 Ford as they were really close .

The flathead 4 cylinder in the ERTL (originally MPC) Jeep is the correct basic motor for the Willys. It shouldn't be too hard a conversion to do. The frames in the Willys kits are slightly modified from stock and would just need stock "style" suspension installed along with the Jeep motor. Some filling in of the rear wheel wells is obviously needed too. Good luck - it's a cool idea.

well I found this and I will probably go the same route he did. I need to find AMT's 1940 ford kit. I might have some trouble procuring the willys jeep engine for this build.

The funny thing is this will be the sixth willys to be built this month:

AMT 1940 willys coupe/pickup - Built it into a KS Pittman willys

Revell Moving Violation - Box stock

Revell Big John - Box stock

Revell Good Guys Willys - Box stock

Revell Good Guys Willys - Custom Drag Project

Revell Stone Woods and Cook 1995 Reissue- Build Pending

Revell SWC/ AMT 1940 Ford - Stock Willys Americar- Build Pending

3 Unbuilt Good Guys Willys

1 Unbuilt SWC Willys

August has been a busy month for me!

I also plan to build the stock willys like this one:

Willys Americar
