1941 Willys 441 Coupe
For consignment, a wild and wooly Willys, with a miles House Of Kolors Tangelo Orange paint job with some pinstriping and gold leaf decaling that gives us the look of a Ford Fairlane dip and swoop trim spear, which is just fab! This is a street legal car but can also hold it's own on the dragstrip if that's your forte. With a supercharged big block V8, custom leather interior, and even more custom electronic touches, this is definitely a neck snapper, and an eye catcher.
Exterior
With front and rear bumpers as well as door handles shaved, teardrop headlights frenched into the bulbous fenders, a custom thin LED rear tail light and some massive through the body side exit pipes she's a runner and looks as though it's moving when standing completely still. The Outlaw fiberglass body has been drenched in a professional application of House Of Kolors Tangelo Orange done by Doug Carlson. A gold leaf and pinstripe spear starts as a point on the sides of the beaked hood and run rearward, culminating in a tribal Fairlane style dip on the rear quarter panels before tapering off to a point just above the rounded rear fenders. This artistic gold was applied by "Howie" Speaking of the hood, in the rear center is a snazzy polished hood scoop, but with its mesh insert no birds or small children will get sucked in. No running boards here, just big fenders which frame front polished consignor stated SFI 15.1 riveted edge effect Centerline wheels wrapped in 24x5.00-R15 front skinny rubber, and rear ultra-wide Centerline SFI 15.1 15-inch wheels wrapped in massive 33X-22.50-15 radials. Custom wheelie bars are peeking out from under the rear roll pan to finish out this lovely, yet frighteningly fast in looks and performance glass runner.
Interior
A swing of the suicide hinged doors allows us to slip inside and be greeted with a tangelo framed door with very nicely sculpted saddle tan padded leather panels. A shiny actuator and ivory tribal insert are seen within this padded leather field. Grabbing a spot in the bucket in front of the wheel, I plant myself in rounded padded leather seats that have a broad stitched tuck and roll design and thin ivory leather inserts. These seats are courtesy of a Mustang II. A beautifully designed saddle leather rimmed steering wheel sits atop a polished tilt column. The dash which is painted in tangelo has AutoMeter gauges with black bezels and white faces and these run across the dash front. Directing your attention to dash central is the foursome of AutoMeter supporting gauges, some push buttons, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM/CD stereo. The console flows down and between the seats are the power window rocker switches, a pair of toggles, and a B&M racing shifter. The headliner is more saddle leather with some ivory swoops and down below is a pristine tan carpet. Flicking the power toggle behind the driver's seat opens the sloping trunk lid. This allows us to gaze upon saddle colored carpeted trunk and the stainless steel fuel tank. A shout out to Gillin Auto Interiors for installing this show quality interior.
Drivetrain
Under the hood is pure automotive art in the form of a super shiny consignor stated 427ci V8 with less than 1,500 miles on the build. This is a Mark IV block and is topped with Merlin cylinder heads. Atop each head are chrome valve coverings with Redline Automotive Competition Engines logoing. Between all this bling is a Weiand supercharger that ingests air and fuel via a pair of Holley 4-barrel carburetors. On the back is a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission which sends power rearward to a Moser 9" rear. Just a crazy shining diamond!
Undercarriage
Near perfection underneath with many polished parts, tangelo painted Outlaw frame and chassis, black floor pans, and that sexy body exiting side exhaust. Even the rear axle and the transmission case are finished in Tangelo Orange, talk about attention to detail. Stainless lines snake their way around this environment as well, and I see a Mustang II independent coil over front suspension and ladder bars with coil overs on back. Power disc brakes are all around. Get the mirrors out at the car show, people won't want to miss this show.
Drive-Ability
These cars are waaaay over this writer's head so I had my partner in crime take me for a spin, and it was an E ticket ride. He reported and I felt plenty of acceleration, so much so that I had to call for my lovely bride to bring me a fresh pair of khakis and boxers. Good handling and plenty of stopping power with this car you will definitely need! It had plenty of creature comforts and all of them work. We did note that after our test drive and during the photography the power lift hood and trunk lid stopped working.
A true race car that is mild mannered enough to drive on the street. With awesome paint, plenty of creature comforts, and all in working pristine clean order. Even the undercarriage you could eat off of, but please nothing greasy! Show and go...like hell!
