Jeep Willys ground-up build

[Hickey]

Does he know what Carl has done to that thing/abuse?

After seeing what's in the Jeep market for the last 4 months, Carl's Jeep was the clean Sunday driver of the group.

Your Jeep seems like it would work pretty well for both of those uses.

Progress! Kinda.

Heading to its new home. The new owner is excited to finish it, and plans to have it driving by April. I'm sad to see it go, but glad it won't be neglected anymore.

 

[I Lean]

Is it an RMEer? I hope we can see the progress.

I don't think so, but he promised me pictures.

Any plans for a replacement tubing/metal rack?

Sad to see it go!

Your exit from rock crawling bums me out. Sad face.

 

[RogueJeepr]

It's a sad day.

 

[Gravy]

Boooooohooo

No immediate plans. However, a bit more space freed up, plus the ever-looming "project" removed from over my head, could mean something will take its place in the future. I think it's safe to say it won't be as much of a project.

Who says I'm exiting? Just because I no longer own any kind of Jeep-type item. I still have 3 4WD vehicles....granted, none will be doing anything really extreme...

Old Sch.. uh, the Delta Classic is coming up in a few months. see you there

And another one bites the dust.

We're a couple weeks away from the 10 year mark from when this thread started.

Last week I got a text:
"Your old rig. He's working frantically to try to have it ready for next
week.."




Apparently he did not get it done in time for their trip this weekend...but reading between the lines, he must have gotten pretty close. I love the switch to the MB/GPW grill, too.

 

[Bart]

Glad to see progress is being made. Love this little rig.

Wait a minute....did you just update this thread? I thought the rule was @skippy had to post the pics. Or is it that @xj_nate was updating it? Or am I confusing things all together and you always updated this and Nate was only updating Ryan's threads?

Nope, you're just high.

Ryan doesn’t post pics so it was definitely not that. I may have posted a pic of the Willy’s under a pile of stuff but I’m not willing to go back and look because it still hurts too much haha
