Cool car! The Filty Forty car is a regular at the York U.S. 30 Reunion shows. Are you in MD? Where in MD was the car? I'm from North-eastern MD.

I am from Pa,The willys i found in Jefferson Md. The old fella i got it from had the hole history on my car.Ai fiberglass made the mold (Anderson industries)and the fiberglass was laid by Dave Anderson.Their is a dent in the right front fender from when the filthy 40 was being loaded on the trailer and hit the rear of the truck.So i am going to leave it that way.it will be painted satin black and on the door it will say (Forty Fort Flyer)as this is the town i live in.Nothing fancy just all old school.

That is cool,was this at York Yes, this was at York. I also think that this is a tribute car, and not the real thing, but it's still a great looking car.
