1941 Willys Coupe Gasser - custom built boxed frame with gelcoat body. Has not been raced since I purchased it and is street legal with current Texas Street Rod plates.
⦁ Gelcoat body, custom frame⦁ Modified 454 Chevy Big Block with AFR aluminum heads @ ~750+hp⦁ 8-71 Weiand Blower with new Holley SD 850cfm carbs (boost referenced)⦁ Single Stage Wet Nitrous System⦁ Lunati cam with roller rockers⦁ New fender exit ceramic headers w/Super Traps⦁ TH400 Hughes performance automatic transmission⦁ B&M ratchet shifter⦁ 9” Ford rearend with 4.11 posi⦁ MSD ignition⦁ Disc brakes front & rear⦁ Firestone Piecrust slicks & wide whites on vintage ET Mags all around⦁ 20 gallon stainless steel fuel cell with new Holley red electric pump⦁ Vega steering box⦁ Ididit tilt steering column with Grant steering wheel⦁ Power windows, door poppers on suicide doors⦁ Autometer gauges and tach⦁ Full roll cage
Vehicle runs strong and idles well in traffic. Stays cool with new TSR aluminum 2-pass radiator, electric fan, and adjustable fan controller in cab. I have not used this car on the strip so do not know what times it might run. Would expect it can turn mid-8sec in 1/4mile.
The car starts every time but is very cold blooded as no chokes on either carb. Vacuum secondaries on both carbs. Boost gauge on firewall to show when blower is powering up. This 8-71 blower only builds boost when power is applied, not in neutral. Runs great once it is warmed up.
Runs on premium pump gas plus octane booster. I use Shell V-Power and Lucas octane booster with good success.
Car is sold as-is with no warranty. Shipping is responsibility of buyer. I can assist in loading or I might be able to deliver in my enclosed car hauler for an added fee to be negotiated.
Please contact me with questions or for any addition pictures.
