Video: Hitting The Boulevard In This Cool ’41 Willys R/C

Taking kustom kulture into the household, this enthusiast channels their passion for hot rods no matter the scale. Posted on YouTube, check out this 1941 Willys remote-control car that hits the cruise low and slow.

Complete with sounds and even a moving mill up front, this mini hot rod sparks awe and curiosity. At the press of a button on the remote control, the user can kill the engine and set the alarm. There’s even a silly horn that swings the mill back and forth as it sounds off with hilarity.

Parked with a slew of other cars from all different automotive universes, it is this hot rod that really stands out from the rest. Heck, you can even hear the engine crank and whine as it moves about, adding that much more authenticity and innovation to the toy.

In greater detail, the low profile tires have tread paths to go along with the slick set of five-spoke polished wheels. To top it all off, the toy’s doors and trunk open, revealing more features. Slicker than your average remote-control car, the interior is fully decked out with bucket seats and a custom dash.

There’s a custom steering column, gauges, and a custom deck. Opening the trunk, we are treated to a sweet audio display, complete with subwoofers, amps, and a bottle of nitrous oxide.

It’s as if this little cool toy was downsized by a shrink ray! Come to think about it, if this were a real build, this would be a legitimate show stopper. Some of you may find this obnoxious and absurd, but you can’t knock the creative thought and imagination behind this little hot rod.

We could only imagine if this was a gas-powered creation, which would emit the smell of unfiltered, unrestricted power. Reminiscing the past only brings us respect and nostalgia for an era that continues even to this day.
