'41 WILLYS 2dr Coupe Streetrod

This is the final result of a 2 year build, all overseen and hands on by the owner personally as being built by "Vanderbeck Race Cars" of Salem Oregon. Retaining the basic body characteristics of a 71 year old classic, it features virtually all the options that you would find in a modern high performance car.
