You're looking at the dream of a Professional Engineer involved in Aerospace design and manufacture here in Southern California. Larry was also an avid Hotrodder and Bonneville Racer. Many of the components Larry designed and built are still orbiting the planet! Unfortunately, Larry unexpectedly passed away last year just as the car was nearly complete. The industry lost a true, well-respected enthusiast.
Larry always had a strong passion for the Willys “Gasser” style but wanted “State of the Art” components for Engine / Drivetrain, Fuel, Brakes, Steering and Suspension systems. Reliability, Drivability and comfort were key elements for this build suitable for Larry's larger than average physic.  
Willys two door coupes from 1937-41 are virtually identical in size and appearance. The problem is that when engine set back and rear tire tubs are created for performance, interior space is seriously compromised. This issue was solved by taking a Willys Four door “Humpback” sedan and modifying (shortened) it to be a two door “Humpback” Coupe. Working with “Paco” (formerly with Chip Foose) on design, construction and painting of the “All Steel” body, the result is a “Drop Dead Gorgeous” Willys coupe. It has room for fully adjustable front seats, a picnic basket and with beautiful “Suicide” doors. The look is stunning with Concours quality!!!  Wheelbase and drivetrain location are calculated for optimum weight distribution as well as handling & braking.

All Steel body with Fiberglass tilt up hood.
This is a rolling chassis that has had all the heavy lifting completed with over $300K invested. The dream stopped at this point due to unexpected death 10 years after the concept was born.
No expense was sparred in the build including the best body work and paint money can buy. Unfinished canvas ready to spec out to your preferences and desires with interior of your dreams. Big man's hot rod with endless power.
