Looks good

About time we see more Jeeps in the comps even if it is only the body left :)

I hope he has put in some major re-enforcement around the steering box on spring mounts the willy's frames are not know for their strength in these areas either that or carry an on board welder :roll:

There was 2 46 willy's for sale down here the other day the guy wanted 2k for both and had heaps of spares thought it would be nice to restore one and build a buggy from the second but no workshop doesnt realy give me too many options

The chassis is 600mm longer and boxed the way with 3mm.

Those 2 46 willys would be nice.

Apparently people think I'm too patronising (that means I treat them like they’re stupid).
