Its Brookville all-steel body is finished in deep black and complemented by a removable black convertible soft top for open-air cruising when the weather permits.

The interior of this 1930 Ford Model A Hi-Boy Roadster Hot Rod is purpose-built while remaining comfortable for long drives. The reupholstered black cabin features a clean dashboard fitted with an aftermarket gauge cluster, a floor-mounted shifter, and a classic four-spoke steering wheel. A Sears heater box provides added comfort on cooler days, while the uncluttered layout stays true to the simplicity and functionality that define traditional roadsters.

For Sale
ASK: $81,298

The 1941 Willys Coupe earned its place in American hot rod history through its lightweight construction, distinctive styling, and popularity among drag racers throughout the 1960s. Decades later, its unmistakable silhouette remains a favorite among enthusiasts looking to build something with serious horsepower and classic street rod character. This 1941 Willys Americar Coupe Street Rod follows that tradition, featuring an Outlaw Performance fiberglass body and a professionally built drivetrain centered around a massive 460ci Ford V8, paired with a C6 3-speed automatic transmission and a Ford 9-inch rear end. Finished in a striking Red exterior over a custom Tan interior, this example features a tilt-forward front end, prominent hood scoop, polished engine components, and staggered aftermarket wheels that give it an aggressive, drag racing-inspired appearance. Inside, custom upholstery, a woodgrain dashboard, and a Grant GT steering wheel bring a touch of refinement to its old-school hot rod personality. Showing just 1,953 miles, this Willys has reportedly remained with its current owner for approximately 19 years, having been purchased directly from the individual who commissioned its original construction. With its imposing big-block V8, custom craftsmanship, and unmistakable Willys styling, this coupe brings together the performance and nostalgia that continue to make traditional American hot rods so appealing.
