Summary:
Used 1941 Willys Coupe
Location:
Morgantown, PA
Description:
1941 Willys 441 Coupe "The 1941 Willys Americar vehicles were slightly longer than theearlier models but still a relatively small automobile. Theslightly updated 1942 models would be the last Willys passengercars built until 1952. During World War II, Willys-Overlandproduced military Jeeps, powered by the durable Willys fourcylinder engine. The 'Civilian Jeep' of 1945 retained the militaryversion's 4WD and set an example for all offroad sport utilityvehicles to come." Thanks to the 40-42 Willys Coupe Facebook group,which currently has nearly 22,000 members. For consignment, a 1941 Willys 441 coupe with a full street rodtreatment. Tubbed rear, shaved handles, flush mounted lights, airride suspension, a fiberglass body, and some neon flash underneath.The paint reflects like a mirror finish and no stone has beenunturned on the top side of this high end build. ExteriorThe distinctive shark nose and bottom feeding grille is flanked bysingle headlights with teardrop bezels that immediately contrastwith the inky black paint which is immediately impressive on thisfiberglass body. It is miles deep and like Jed Clampett's fortune,it's like a vat of crude oil, black gold. The black goes on foreverin spectacular two stage coverage interrupted on the side only by adynamic multi-hue painted spear that blips in the center like aheartbeat, then trails off to a point in the front. While we're atthe side, there's no denying the wild shape of the Willys, surgingforward with canted fenders, a rounded cab, a raked stance, and ofcourse, the shark nose pointing forward. Small side mirrors adornthe car along with billet style wiper arms, while slit style taillights barely make an appearance and do not disrupt the enormousblack dome in back, topped by a split rear window with, yep, blacktrim. 15-inch Weld wheels act as shoes and the rears hold33x19.5x15 meats. Save for a scratch and some rock chips on thefront face of the rear fenders, the exterior is flawless. Purpleneon lights illuminate under the car for show time shenanigans. InteriorA tri colored leather graphic stripe spans the doors and flows tothe back walls, all on a background of gray leather. A Willys "W"is cleverly stitched in the seat inserts of the tall bucket seatsin gray leather with headrests and armrests on the inside. A wingsstyle steering wheel is a familiar mod and fronts a glossy blackdashboard filled with gold rimmed retro style VDO gauges for anattractive presentation. The center of the inky dash has a smallA/C control panel, an AM/FM/CD player, and a digital monitor forthe Air Ride suspension. A Lokar shifter rises from the floor,showing some patina on the shaft, and electric window toggles falljust behind it. Low pile gray carpet covers the floor with matchingmats and the headliner is taut and gray. The trunk houses the innerfender wells and a bottle of nitrous, lined with the same graycarpet and stitched leather walls. The inside of the trunk lid isalso dressed with gray leather fill pieces. DrivetrainA spectacular looking engine awaits as we open the hood and revealthe 350ci, fuel injected V8 with etched aluminum valve covers anddress up panels. Accessories are polished metal as well and headersbegin the exhaust process. A TH400 3-speed automatic transmissionsets the car in motion by sending power to the Ford 9" rear. Discbrakes are in the front and drums are in the rear. UndercarriageThe boxed tube frame is painted purple on the underside that canbest be described as driver quality. There's some surface rustaround and some chipping purple paint, but not a build up of greaseand grime or leaks are to be found. The dual exhaust flows into apair of mufflers and then heads out the sides via chrome tips.Suspension consists of airbags at both ends with ladder barsaugmenting the rear. The rear axle has been narrowed and the fattires take up serious real estate in the back of the car. Drive-AbilityFuel injection does its job by starting the engine on demand andthe small block puts out some sweet notes to the sides. Thestaggered tires provide straight tracking going forward andturn-ins can be sharp as the big boys in back make the circle.Braking is adequate and acceleration is respectable for thislightweight street rod. Our horn does not blow and the air from theA/C is cool but not cold. Beyond that, all functions operate asintended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functionswere working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guaranteethese functions will be working at the time of your purchase. This one caught my eye in the loading zone of our facility. I mean,I look at every car coming in, but this one stood out. It hasincredible presence and represents a stunning build. The undersidepresents opportunities for further refinement if that's the routeyou take, but there's no harm in leaving it as is. This one provesthat basic black, done right, is a great choice, and it looksfantastic on the unique Willys coupe body.
