"Americar" or "Speedway Coupe" ? We have both in the database. |

All 1941 Willys were called Americars. There were 3 coupes a De Luxe, a Plainsman coupe and a Speedway coupe. |

It's a fiberglass shell made to look like a '41 Willys. |

I could have sworn I put replica in the extra info. They end up cutting the shell in half and making military themed wall art for the Wounded Warriors Project charity. ![[Image: screenshot2567.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23667/screenshot2567.jpg) ![[Image: screenshot2568.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23667/screenshot2568.jpg) ![[Image: screenshot2569.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/23667/screenshot2569.jpg) |

Sooooo... Should those entered as Speedway Coupe be changed to Americar ? |

To my way of thinking, it should be entered as Willys Americar and the type of coupe either De Luxe, Plainsman or Speedway @Exiv96 - What makes you so sure it is a Speedway replica?? |

Exiv means these, currently listed as just "Speedway" whatever. -- Last edit: 2018-10-09 17:57:51 |

As you can see, all Willys were called Americar. Link to "www.ebay.com" There were 3 coupes - Americar De Luxe, Americar Plainsman and Americar Speedway. Info comes from the "Encyclopedia of American Cars" |

So, what do we do with the various Americars and Speedways (and one simply listed as a Willys Coupe)? -- Last edit: 2018-10-09 23:05:19 |

In 1940, there was no specific series. Just a Speedway or a De Luxe coupe or sedan In 1941 and 1942 called Americar. Americar De Luxe, Americar Plainsman and Americar Speedway coupe or sedan. As to what differentiates a Speedway from a De Luxe and from a Plainsman, I do not know. Is there an expert, perhaps Commander 57, that might know?? |

Still leaves a dozen Americars, one Speedway Coupé (no Americar), one Coupe (no Americar nor Speedway), three Speedway Sedans (no Americar), and this replica. |

What make sit a Speedway as opposed to a Plainsman or a De Luxe?? |
|
◊ 2018-10-10 17:16 |
I don't think anyone really knows, which would explain that dozen listed as Americar with no specified trim level. |

Since the prevailing opinion on the database is that they are Speedway coupes, list it as a 1941 Willys Americar Speedway coupe REPLICA. Yes, No |
