John- I liked this one cause most '41 Willys' are done gasser style, & then pro-street, now pro-touring. Hadn't seen one done led-sled style.

I for one am not a big fan of customs. I can appreciate the craftsmanship, ingenuity, and imagination to create one but I prefer them stock or restomod at the most. I have a neighbor that buys and sells survivors and I have taken a real liking to them. (his latest is a 60K mile 1956 Bel Air totally original until he replaced the sagging seat cushions) That's the interesting thing about cars, different strokes for different folks.

I like survivors, & restomods. Certain customs I really like too. For me, I don't want something I'm afraid to take out & drive. No fun in just having a trailer queen. For me anyhow.

I think restomods are great. Done right, you wouldn't know it might have all the modern amenities under & in it. That LS3 doesn't know it's hooked up to a 41 Willys. (for example).
