WILLYS GONE WILD

[Dr. Cranky]

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!

[Dr. Cranky]

Eyeball VS eyeball:

[Sixx]

Would that grille be from a 50 Ford pickup?????????? That's freekin cool Doc!!!!

[Dr. Cranky]

Derrick, you know your kits well. Yes sir, I could not believe what a perfect fit this thing is once you cut it . . . THANK YOU!

[Dr. Cranky]

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!!!!!!!!!!!

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.

Never , ever , say never ! The fact that you are hesitating ? Bwahahahah ! You are becoming a shine addict , my boy ! Lmao !

[Dr. Cranky]

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!

Congratulations on a very impressive model

[Dr. Cranky]

Thanks, Sait. It's just pure fun exchanging all the inspiration on this forum. Cheers, DC

[LoneWolf15]

Rumor has it that some type of cross dressing is involved , dunno , guess we'll have to wait and see ! Lol !

[rmvw guy]

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!!!

[crazyjim]

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?

I don't know, Donn, I might be done with certain types of cross dressing:

The Willys is looking fantastic Doc.

Corey

[Hollywood Jim]

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.)

[gasser59]

Thanks Doc. Now I now have burnt retinas with that image forever emblazoned on my corneas.

[Dr. Cranky]

LOL, and nobody says anything about my lovely Miami Dolphin socks. HA!

Thanks, everyone. I will add just a little bit of mud all the way around. I am finishing this sucker today.

[plasticbutcher]

Hey Doc the Willy looks great but you are scaring me with the Kilt, HAHAHA.

Build on my friend

[gasser59]

LOL, and nobody says anything about my lovely Miami Dolphin socks. HA!

If I had socks like those, I'd be cranky too. LOL

[MachinistMark]

looks awesome, but she'd never work in the real world! not enough tire clearance!

[woody .]

Really nice work like the color.

[James2]

I don't know, Donn, I might be done with certain types of cross dressing:

You do realize, I will have to wash my eyes out with kerosene now!

[Dr. Cranky]
