'41 WILLYS AMERICAR COUPE! 496CI BIG BLOCK CHEVY! SHOW QUALITY! BYRON DRAGWAY!

The '41 Willys Americar Coupe with it's unique shape and ideal proportions make it a popular car to hot rod. With it's teardrop headlights and huge back fenders that were just perfect for stuffing in some big slicks, the Willys had just the right look. Back in the early drag racing days these coupes could be seen in the pits at all drag strips across the country.
Check out Davie Elliott's freshly built show quality '41 coupe! Powered by an aluminum headed, roller cammed 496ci big block chevy, Davie had his hands full trying to harness the power on his first time out with the car. With some suspension adjustments and maybe some wheelie bars to tame those launches, 8 sec passes will come easily! #willys #nostalgia
