Repairs were needed on this project for it to travel properly on the road. Adjust the front and rear ride heights, install new spindles, correct springs, and correct-length coil-overs. Add grease to the upper and lower ball joints. Adjust the alignment. Install some mirrors. Polish the door hinge pins, and touch up the paint on the frame. She rides great now!

1942 Willis Coupe owned by Tom DeNooyer of Albany, NY Partial Build
This project started out with a request from the customer to complete a detailed inspection of the Willis. This resulted in the discovery of lots of problems, but that's what we're here for! After making those repairs and adjustments we finished with a touch-up some of the painted areas as needed and she was good to go!
