I love everything on this car except that Green (color) & I can see where the builder was going with it, not trying to use a color that others have used repeatedly on Willy's, but the color isn't attractive nor complimentary.

Engine? Who wouldn't love a 392 Hemi? With a GMC blower? One of the icons of Hot Rodding back in the day. All the top A/GS guys ended up running blown 392 Hemi's eventually. They virtually dominated the class until the advent of the 426 Hemi's. Those were the days my friends. All drag racing was racing not an exercise in not going too fast. What the NHRA calls "Full Throttle" racing nowadays. I understand all the varies reasons for dial in's but when a 283 powered Impala can beat an all out, blown, injected Hemi powered Willys by going slow, well what can I say. When i went racing the fastest car was the fastest car, period. It don't matter if one guy had more money to spend on his ride. Fast was fast and second was, well, not fast enough. And no one had bottles of giggle juice in their car. Some poor hot rodder invests big bucks on a nice rump-rump motor and some schlump dumps gobs of nitrous in a stove-bolt and goes faster (at least for a while).
Yes I truly dig this old time gasser.

Gassers are cool and always will be. No more discussion needed. The matching helmet and piston shift knobs are nice touches.
