Does anyone make a kit or conversion for these. Or do I have to resort to scratchbuilding one?
Thanks for any replies-

Lymes Models makes the grill for it in laser-cut paper. It looks pretty good. I used it a while ago on my Slat-grill Willys last year.

No clue on a site for them. I found it on Ebay a while ago.

Oh yeah, I forgot. it is actually a conversion set. It includes the laser-cut paper grill and a resin rear body panel with the script "WILLYS" on it. It is really nice.

Thanks for all the tips and help Gino and Roy. Just hit the Limes Models website and ordered one. Price wasn't too bad! Have to grab up some of those early GMC Grills one of these days!
