This is a chance of a lifetime to own this 1941 all steel body Willys Great 8 Ridler finalist. There was 6 years into the build with a cost of over $400, 000. Only 170 miles since completion, a true trailer queen, but can also be driven. There aren't too many 10s out there, but this is as close as you can get to one. I have had a few 6 figure cars and I am blown away everytime I look at this truck. Bid with confidence, truck was appraised at $200, 000 several months ago. If possible please come and see this truck in person, it's hard to capture the amazing craftsmanship in photos.
