O Fallon, IL
Description:
Gateway Classic Cars Houston Showroom is excited to offer thiswicked ProStreet 1940 Willys pickup for sale. This beast needs tobe seen up close to fully appreciate the custom "Ruby Slippers"metalflake paint, with its airbrushed tribute to the POW-MIAcommunity. It shines and sparkles like crazy in bright sunlight,yet looks like a dark cabernet in lower light conditions. There areplenty of hidden, and not-so-hidden bonuses with this wicked ride.The custom fiberglass tilt front end releases via the latch pullsin the center of the dash, and lifts up easily with one hand toreveal the 468 CID Reher-Morrison V8, which is topped by a set offully tweaked Brodix aluminum heads. As is typical ofReher-Morrison built engines, this one is balanced like the rotorin an Patek Philippe: it revs up and comes back down instantly,while providing a sound of fury that most will quickly back awayfrom. Behind the furious 468 is a custom-built 700R4 4-speedautomatic transmission, tweaked to handle the output of the 468.The 700R4 also features a reverse manual valve body, so you'll wantto be mindful of "slapping the gear lever down" on the ratchetshifter lever to shift up to the next gear when you're making apass. Speaking of passes - this drivetrain has zero track passes,but about 100 miles of cruising on it, so it's just getting brokenin! Out back is a custom "Ultimate-10" rear end, which is equippedwith limited slip differential and 4.88:1 gears, so you may want toinvest in wheelie bars if you decide to put slicks on it and makesome passes. The 468 is topped by a Proform 850 CFM carburetor on acustom Holley Sniper intake. An electric water pump works in tandemwith the giant aluminum radiator to keep the big block cool, MSDignition helps ensure that the go-juice is completely lit, and longtube headers feed the spent fossils into the custom dual exhaust.This little rocket also features adjustable coil-over shocks at all4 corners, with tubular front control arms and an adjustable 3-linkrear suspension. It's riding on aluminum Weld Racing wheels, whichare wrapped by Mickey Thompson radials (24X5.00R15LT up front,31X18.00R15LT out back). The interior features off-white syntheticleather, which is nicely accented by light cream inserts. Itfeatures a custom center console (with cupholders, along with theswitches for the power windows). Its tan carpet looks virtuallyunused. Billet aluminum dash panels house a complete AutoMeterProComp gauge package, and a billet aluminum steering wheel sitsatop the tilt steering column. If you're looking for a real Willysthat's both "show" and "go", this should be high on your list toadd to your collection, so call or email our Houston Showroomtoday!
