Sixx Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Well, I actually got a full build done!!!! I switched wheels & tires to skinnier ones front and back, I thought they would look cooler. I also tossed the blower in favor for Hillborn injection. I added fuel lines, plug wires( magneto ) aluminum pullies-with a real rubber belt. I added throttle linkage too. One thing about these Willys that I never paid attention to, was the fact there is no steering linkage to the firewall...so I added that too. For my buddy Ray Kurns...can ya tell my wife did NOT take the pics?? LOL!! I gotta leave that up to her!! Comments welcomed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
