Thread: Oh no not another Willys Gasser build, this time a Willys shop truck

Tweet

Not a great deal of progress recently mainly due to having a bursitis on my Achilles tendon so can't stand on it for too long but did manage a few bits & bobs.
Firstly sorted a top hose out, its a stainless bend cut up and rewelded and has 2 short lengths of radiator hose and stainless clips, it got shot in satin black.











I got my coupe out of storage and someone mentioned the truck was much lower so I took this pic to compare them, not much difference really.








I got to polishing the stainless bed strips as well (god awful job) and drilled the holes in them, i'm using rubber matting on the bed floor so had a trial fit.










I also got to thinking about rear fenders and had a good look around but couldn't find exactly what I wanted but then a pal Nick who owns Pro-Laminates came up with some glass ones, they are virtually perfect but needed slightly enlarging on the radius so a few cuts were made and they spread just enough, I will glass up the cuts next job, then I will cut them to add an inch in the width.
