Welcome to Street Dreams as we celebrate our 26th year in the classic and muscle car business. The Willys-Overland company had been building cars for almost 35 years before they assembled their first Jeep. Of course the 362,841 Jeeps they produced during WWII were what made Willys a household name. Gearheads of a certain age, however, will remember the glorious gassers of the late 1950's and early 1960's, many of which bore the Willys name. This wicked all-steel 1940 Willys street rod is a gorgeous example of the marque that evokes a bit of the gasser mystique. Lift the uniquely shaped hood and you'll find a potent 392 Hemi that's been fortified with a Street Demon carburetor, a Hot Heads aluminum intake manifold, long tube headers, MSD ignition, and an aluminum radiator. Additional features include a Mustang II-type IFS, 4-link rear suspension with Ford 9 and 4.10 Posi, power rack and pinion steering, 4-wheel disc brakes, Vintage Air A/C, 700R4 automatic transmission with O/D and 3500 rpm stall converter, a 9-point roll cage, a Ron Francis wiring kit, a custom interior, and big-n-little American Racing alloy wheels wearing appropriate shoes (165/80R15 F, 31x10.50R15 R). Frosting? Check out the beautiful ghost flames under the hood and on the dash, as well as Big Daddy Don Garlits' signature in the glovebox. Cooler than the other side of the pillow! There are not many all-steel 1940 Willys coupes out there, and fewer still are built this well. If a wild Willys is on your bucket list, call the Texas Hill Country's premier source for classic cars and the team that can make your dream a reality.
