Just scored a 1937 Willys pickup! It's all original and seems to be in good shape( I've only seen pictures). Moparron has been sending me several pictures so I can get some ideas of what they look like (gasser, street rod, etc.) I can't wait to pick it up tomorrow, then I can quit pinching myself because I don't believe it's mine.

Ron, I sure hope you sent him the link to the El Cajon guy's PU. Lots of great stuff there to feed a fevered mind!

The front fenders on that age of Willys PU are freaking cool. The headlights are freaking slick, if you want an idea of what some nobody from the internet thinks, twin turbos housed or fed air from those headlight buckets would be awesome.

Great Project good luck with it.

there ya go, Ron. That's the first and last pics.
The site is good; covers headlight mods, frame, buildup etc.
I can even understand the Ferd engine, since that's his passion and it makes the right sounds....

Good luck on the project. If I wasn't so big, I'd love one of those.

Well,
1st .. I love that truck/pickup

2nd .. I hope you know how rare /weird that it is

Whatever you do(and of course, at this point its yours) ..
Don't make some crazy /wild thing out of it


I would be careful to keep it looking like a normal one with a "hot rod " feel to it


But, its yours, its neat and do it your way
just pre-think it best you can


good luck with it

I did pick it up . Very, very happy with it. The guy I bought it from was offered much more than he sold to me for, but he told the other people that he promised it to me first. First class all the way . There was some major head turning as I trailered it home. My computer is acting up or I would upload some pictures(thank you Ron for putting up some pics. for everyone to see). I really love that Colby Mattress truck. I've seen it at a bunch shows and have always admired it.

Awesome looking truck. I really like the character of it. Can't wait to see your direction. . Isn't Ron such an instegator .. In a GREAT way of course..



When you decide to quit, THAT is the moment when you would've succeeded..
