1931 Willys Street Rod
I've got this guy who wants to sell me his willys street rod. It's been in the garage collecting dust for 8 years now so he's ready to let it go. It's a 1931 Willys 5w rumble seat coupe with an all steel very stright body, 3-1/2 chop, electric steel sunroof, Heat treated glass with power windows, full fendered with running boards, 70 454 Bored 60 over to a 468 with Roller rockers, aluminum heads, stainless headers and exhaust, TH400 B&M, Custome made Budnick wheels with matching steering wheel, 12 bolt posi, 5 link suspension, Koni Coil overs, Power brakes and steering with a custom Mustang II rack set-up (nice looking), good paint and interior, Porsche seats (light coral with tan tweed cloth like what was real popular about 15 years ago) He has spent an easy $60K building this car doing all of the work himself and has $9K in receipts for the engine alone with a 540HP dyno ticket. The car was done right. It needs detailing and some very minor touch-up to be smokin. He'll sell the car as-is for $25K or rolling for $19K. I can't find a lot of info on 31 Willy's rods. What do you guys think?? What's this thing really worth???Old dusty Relics

Willys
I'm going over this weekend to take some pics and hear it run. Needs a new battery. It looks great even covered with dust. I also like the fact that is is rare and not likely to be a million of them at the next cruise or rod show. It also has a nice balanced body line. Not as nice as a 32 Ford but nicer than a Model A. I'll probably just get it detailed out and running smooth and run it for a month or two and sell it. It's not really my cup of tea but I wouldn't mind cruising in it for the summer.Old dusty Relics

Sounds like a really nice car, Dusty. If it's put together right I would think you would be more than getting your money's worth. Advertise it to the right peeps and you should be able to turn a buck or ten on that one. Anxious to see some pics.Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, Live for Today!
