1952 Willys Truck $22,500 Okeechobee, FL
Lots of Easter Egg’s here to look over the details of this Custom Rig, someone looks like they had a lot of fun putting this one together. 460 / C6, that’s nuts. So much detail work done to this, but at the same time I would want to make this your own.
Here is my version of this, I think it’s about $8k in changes and freshen this up a bit.
- Safety Check, Tune Up and Service, check out the frame and suspension work performed to make sure anything that needs to be addressed gets addressed.
- I would go back to the Willys parking lights up front.
- Rear roll pan is gone then go back to nice simple NACO in the back.
- Same for the interior go back and retrofit the OEM gauges to the 460 not hard there. Might be easier to use a ‘47 – ‘50 Rectangle Gauge set.
- Interior all wood would go away.
- Seats may have to stay but recover.
- Door cards would come from William Work and make more OEM looking.
- Wheels would get US Wheel to make some custom based on the need there so they look more Stock, play with the ratio of the front tire a bit if able. Front is too small for me.
- If they have the paint code for the brown I would look to add the beading to the bed steps like the original, that’s a really nice touch not many would notice, but when its not there I think it stands out as a flat step.
- Mirrors would be replaced with an original single stock single arm simple circle one.
- Tailgate I would go standard “W” gate out back. If this is a narrow custom bed, would just source a re-pop then, would do stock chains and the sort
