Originally purchased as a drag car and was raced for many years, Detroit Speed transforms this ’41 Willys Americar Coupe into a Pro-Touring street cruiser with a hand-formed steel body for Mike & Janie Braswell…
The Willys Americar was a line of automobiles produced by Willys-Overland Motors from 1937 to 1942, either as a sedan, coupe, station wagon or pickup truck.
