WILLYS 1

Hard to find a stock Willys kit or at least one without a hole in the hood- I love highboy straightaxle gassers as much as most hot rod fans do but this one has a more stock feel going. Rear axle from Rommel's Rod sitting on leaf springs from a Revell Ford sit in the frame along with the kit's Hemi block. Bench seat was added back in with a stock steering wheel from that 1959 Ford,and the thing will sit on wide white walls from th3 1936 Ford kit (neat one)- Mister Red Primer





Vintage hood done in orange enamel was parts car bonus a while back in Skyway- random!! Gasser shots below feature the Willys sitting on a model A frame for kicks

This one has been lurking on the shelves up at Skyway for months and I knew I would end up taking it home sooner or later. It's one of those clunky 1/24th Tom Daniels vantasies that has a few weird parts but a neat body to mess with- as usual I chose to de-Seventies the thing with some steel wheels and wide whitewalls. Not sure I ever built this one as a youth on Oakshire Drive, but I know I built the Ice T, the Red Baron, the Beer Wagon, the Paddy Wagon and godknows what else.



This bottom shot shows how the kit's big-and-little mags and tires were replaced with parts box utilitarian pieces, evening out the stance a little-Mr Red Primer

Couldn't resist this chopped 48 coupe kit- it's got many many optional parts and great wide whitewalls- of course I dragged out my 48 'vertible to finish them together-love how Revell's early Ford chassis and rims/tires hit together- they are standardized just like the real article- Mr. Red Primer
