About a 40 or so imo, but either way gotta love those Willys (their jeeps are great, too).

this is the car before he bought it(first 2) and after((rest of the pics, Ontario George).

It's funny, he is the most quiet, unassuming fella, yet he was dragging this car in the 60's getbigger style

bit of historical trivia...his and my mom's grandfather was friends and worked with Henry Ford when he was prepping his car for the 1908 Ford Motor Company and was offered to buy in as an investor but did not have the $5000 minimum back then which as you would know, was an unreal amount of money in those days, esp with a family to feed

Nice, man. I saw a Lancia not too long ago, too. First one I've ever seen on a street, must be.

Great history. Really really nice, NM. I thought you'd just pulled that from google to show a point.

I had to pull it off a website where he had posted.

Funny thing is I remember as a kid being at his house(we lived 700km away at the time) and the trophies etc were there and he didn't brag and was actually kind of shy about the whole thing, or I guess you can say Humble.

But I always remember the big black and white pic my mother had(has?) in a photo album, I always loved that photo of the car pic from the front espec the rat on the front hood

Lmao the rat is the very first thing I noticed, it's great. The whole thing is so badass, it is unreal. A Willys.
