MIZINK'
I'm still working on my 41 Willys. I got a body and bare prostreet frame from Antique and Collectable
www.acrods.com
It's nearly perfect right out of the box. A good buff and you could pass it off for paint. The fit of everything was pretty good with exception of one door. I've reworked it my self and it is ok. It only took 8 hours to mount the body and fenders including making some special brackets. The body is well made and very smooth. The frame is well made also. I have tube mustange front end and 9 inch Ford rear end. I added a 4 link and panhard bar to complete the suspension.
SBC and Turbo 350
I went through the same thing you are doing before getting this one. Some mfg are ok but many make bodies the make rebuilding a steel one seem easy. I've seen a couple that look like they are original made in 1941.
A&C delivered mine almost to the hour promised and are very easy to get along with.
give them a call.
PM me is you want more info
