Hand made all aluminum bodied Willys
Look closely at the body...polished flames! This car won't be painted.

Not even close to the nicest looking car I have ever seen! That thing is ugly!!! Plus, how would it do in an accident, that is something that everybody should always keep in mind, that I why I love Mercedes-Benz, their safety.

There's got to be some type of protective clear coating though. Plain aluminum won't hold up to the elements over time.

I'm assuming that it was clear anodized...but i could be wrong.

It's a car that I would easily classify as "Badass"!!
