I see "Ford" "Wheelies" listed on the bay all the time. ;)

So your entry would seem appropriate to me. :thumbsup:

So the answer to that Coach is no, nyet, nadda! ... Run what ya brung and post what ya built ...

Besides I checked your sight so I know the only thing longer than the front end on your Willy's is your own nose and this whopper yer tellin' ... Pinocchio!


Me Mislead? Never? a Few people in this world I think should be lead off a short bridge but mislead? naver.. HAR!

Ok this will be item CPP 113 in the auction also.. I have to replace the motor as I stripped something in testing today oppps.... But her she is.. what started as Little Joe became Lady Ho II Lil Joe has a bit more work to do so ....Motor Body are all resin casts. Motor was origiangly from a hot wheels and way too heavy so used it to design this one, Body was a old one cut in front of the front sill Styrene extension wrapped in resin then made a resin mold of it and cast this finished product.. Grey undercoat darkened the Candy Apple Red more then I would have liked but no time to redo with a white undercoat...but ....

Ok..Ok..Ok... I won't wuss out..LOL
If I do win by a far chance I will donate it to the runner up. :thumbsup:

Coach,
I guess Bill and Ed are saying that a ford is Ok.Just change the Hubcaps.No one will know..But Pinochio.. Now that stretchin it a little isn't it..LOL
The car from this buildoff will be donated to Coaches charity auction after the contest.

Well Bill..I guess I will stay..Just tried reverse and it still went foward..
:tongue:
Final touches to the Willys going on tonight.. Boy the sweats a rollin ..Cuttin it close.. :freak:

Bill,
Stealin parts from your wifes volvo for your willys..You should be ashamed.. :devil: LOL

VJ is wussin out....LMAO Post it VJ. It don't cost a thing.... :thumbsup:

I already did post my willy's... it was weak in comparison.

I'll enter the blue Cooks willy's... I don't have any others that are worthy.
Some VERY inspired entries!

hey, we all have our strenghs, mine don't appear to be willy's.

I'll put up one of my cheetahs or red wagons against any and all takers though!

hehehehehe

Just shot the final coat of color on my Wile-Eeees......
Should be a good showdown against my RoadRunner!
Just can't find my derned acme decals and it is torquing me off! :mad:
I may have to post it sans decals, eh, but I will keep looking!

VJ,

You have me thinkin for an end of 2007 contets..
How does a" King Of Custom " sound to ya?? I have been throwin it around for awhile..
Its a little dented by now.. But it just might be a go later on seeing the turn out for the Willys.. :thumbsup:
Rules: There are no rules..It will be HO, 1/24th and 1/32nd Im thinkin..
Build as wild as you want ,anything you want. :roll: :eek:
3 classes.. 1 for each of the scales. Then each best from the classes go head to head for" Custom Of The Year".. That way it gives everyone in slots a chance for builder of the year.. :thumbsup:

King of Cutoms? sounds cool.

Ok..Ok..Ok... I won't wuss out..LOL
If I do win by a far chance I will donate it to the runner up. :thumbsup:

Tick tock you guys! LOL there's still plenty of time.

Buster: Try flipin the selector input bracket on the tranny. Snicker. LDRNP! Seen it more than once! :freak:

Got a great WB/Looney Toon mental picture of Joez tearing the bat cave apart to find his decals...Tee Hee

Robi dont mind me stealin parts from the family truckster... She does however mind when I spin the fuel filters on kitchen can-opener. D'Oh!

VJ's got so many cars he doesnt even remember the bitchin', black old, school vert Willy's he did a few months back!

Tick tock you guys! LOL there's still plenty of time.

Well here it is already... St. Willys Eve, and I am afraid I cannot finish what I started. Sorry guys... I just didn't think that I'd have so many obstacles to hop over to get this Willys finished. :freak: ... Been away from home for a week now and away from the workbench too. I have decided to donate my current project to Duke Dave's auction in August. It WILL be finished by then. I just can't finish this one on the fly. I salute you guys who have managed to get theirs done (you ALL rock). These are some FINE looking customs and I will enjoy casting my vote for as many as I'm allowed. I will not be back at mine until Thursday night. Maybe back in the house tomorrow if the floors are dry, but I have to put the danged house back together and move the Chedmeister (old triple toes) back home too. HOWEVER, ya know... I may have one more small shovel of "nuther" I can heave into the mix. I have an oldie that is (in spirit) a Willys custom... if I can find it... and if I can get back into the house tomorrow without ruining the freshly finished floor! It might not even pass the tech inspection, but I'll leave that to you all to decide. ;) ...I love this kind of stuff... Can't wait to see all the pics!!!

nuther dave

gear buster...like your idea about the 2007 year end anything goes. I would like to build a 1/32 and a ho....is that possible?

Nice pics here so far...this contest rocks! Now I can work on my track layout....yeah baby!

bob...zilla

Great idea Steve!

A no holds barred, end of year custom "Free for All" sounds like just the ticket.

I'm starting tonight!

Yoder: Your Mudskipper is too cool and well out side of the box. It's what makes HT great. Open minded and free wheeling :thumbsup:

Joe: I'm amazed at how you crammed that motor in and still got the hood to close. I'm curious how deep you had to go into the bag of tricks to bring the tail down. That's a drastic change. Looks like she's draggin butt now! :tongue:

Coach: I cant believe what you went through to put your dragster together. You have the patience of four men. I like the darker shade of Candy!

Where to start..

Yoder: Love the different approach to a willys.That would be a pleaser at any mud run. :cool:

Joez: The colors gets my thumbs up. You hit the old school look right on the head. :freak: Good thing the motor isn't a big block. :drunk:

Coach:
How hot did you heat up the Willys to stretch it that far??
That gives a new meaning to winning by a nose. :D

Bill,

The chop is wild but those pipes are insane Lookin. I hope they hold up when you fire up the alky hol Hemi.. :cool: The color is reminded me of "Charlie Brown." waitin for the great pumkin...LOL Just jivin. Great looker. :thumbsup:

I thought that would be a great end of the year blowout. Lots of time to think of good cars. Build all you want no rules. Build 1 of each..I have to ask the better half for a raise on my spending cash now.. :tongue:

Good luck to all and great builds I have seen so far.. :thumbsup:

Awesome build Steve!

Great chassis cram and a lower than a mudpuddle stance. :p

Looks like it scoots just sittin' there! :thumbsup:

Bill,

So low I deshelled a Turtle on the way to the show..LOL

To all willys builders and HT :
I will put up a vote poll in the Morning for the Judgin to begin. :thumbsup:
It will give some a few more to get posted. Good luck to all.. You sure have some wild ideas for willys.. :cool:

I may have one more small shovel of "nuther" I can heave into the mix.

... Unfortunately, now I've lost my shovel!!! (now I can't find the infernal CAMERA CORD ! ! ! (among other things) :freak: Did an 11th hour photo shoot just to realize I had no way to download them... sigh! :confused:

Be that as it may, I am STILL totally stoked to see all of the Willys and cast a vote.

nice work everybody.... nd

Bill,

So low I deshelled a Turtle on the way to the show.....

MMMMM Turtle soup!

If ya ran over a herd a turtles you could make Fintstone hubcaps from the shells and a hood soup...er ... scoop.

Oh great! Another custom idea. This board is a dangerous place... be very afraid! :rolleyes:

Bill,

Custom Turtles...HHmmm Don't know how well they would handle but would take a wall shot pretty well..LOL

The custom idea would be great but I would have a hard time buildin with no fin..d..ers left... I love snappers.. :eek: :eek:

Really Steve! Sone day I'm gonna try and do Barney Rubbles "Dug Out" roadster for a warm up and perhaps figure out a way to adapt the Zoomboni track cleaner for a steamroller wheel, big a$$ stone age convertible like Fred had.

There's a lot of really bad cartoon cars out there so maybe I can add two more!

Hi,

As said would do in initial post, have deleted the Willys.

Strangely, seems to have stopped after last posting . . .

Hopefully HT members will now continue with the thread by posting.

Cheers,
Jas
