A commanding presence in any lineup, this 1941 Willys Hot Rod is a true one-off creation—built to deliver the thrill of classic hot rod aesthetics with the performance and comfort expected of a modern street machine. Its show-ready Tangerine Orange finish is applied in a high-gloss gel coat (RAL1003) that gleams under sunlight and captures attention from every angle. Only two minor paint blemishes—incurred during enclosed transport—are present and do not detract from the overall visual impact.

At its heart lies a powerful 468 cubic inch Big Block Chevy V8, paired with a Holley 4-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock manifold, offering explosive torque and classic hot rod sound. The power is managed through a 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive, delivering smooth, responsive shifts whether cruising local roads or rolling down the highway.

The rear end is professionally tubbed, housing a 9-inch axle supported by adjustable coil-over shocks and planted by massive 15-inch wide Mickey Thompson rear tires mounted on authentic Weld Wheels. This setup not only enhances the car’s aggressive stance but also ensures confident traction and ride stability.

Inside, luxury meets muscle with a butter-soft black Italian leather bench seat, factory A/C, power windows, and a tailored dashboard featuring Stewart Warner gauges and a Forever Sharp mahogany tilt steering wheel. Additional custom touches include interior hood and trunk release levers, a fully enclosed aluminum fuel tank, and a hidden trunk-mounted battery cutoff switch.

With a build that balances beauty, brute power, and thoughtful customization, this ’41 Willys is not only ready for the trophy circuit—it’s fully licensed, street legal, and has been safety inspected for road use. Whether you’re turning heads at a show or commanding attention on the boulevard, this Hot Rod delivers both presence and performance with confidence.
