Started this build a couple of weeks ago...just getting around to posting pics now...sorry guys. Well anyway the body was painted with Tamiya bright orange through the airbrush,decals applied then clear coated with 2x rustoleum clear through the airbrush also.The engine is from the Monogram 57 Chevy Nomad kit.The carbs and headers I cast myself from resin.The wheels and tires are from my spare parts box. The body and frame was a glue bomb from Ebay.. More to come soon,thanks for looking guys!   |

Awesome looking paint and decal work and nice choice with those rims and tires. Motor looks real sweet and nice change from the original supplied engine

Sweet looking engine mate, are the tops on the carbs actually metal?

Willys is looking sweet so far, great paint and those wheels are perfect !
Only criticism, I'd have used that red engine in the background.... rolling

Thanks guys,I really appreciate your comments Les-the metal stacks on top of the carbs are made by Parts by Parks. Hey Martin,if I could get that engine to fit under the hood I would use it...lololo |

If you don’t mention it I would’ve never thought it was a glue bomb. Amazing job.
