    Default Some Willy's Goodness

    Hey All,

    Just thought I'd share some pics of my project Willy's. Lots been done to it: chassis sandblasting, underbody sandblasting, many parts powdercoated, recovered seats, paint job, engine rebuild, tranny rebuild, interior panels (match the seats), headliner, grill slats, new wiring harness, speakers, courtesy lights, etc. I went back to the original style gauges from what my Dad had out in, it did require welding the holes in the dash, but I think it looks good. Still have the bumpers to get re-chromed, wheels/tires and all new glass cut. This Willy's has been in my family longer than I have. My Dad & 2nd cousin built 2 Wagons out of the 3 they had back in the 60's, my Dad always kept his. It's been a blast and I'm sure to enjoy it when I do get it on the road. This is why I haven't been to many shoots lately and have been locked up in my garage with the heater going, ha-ha. Lots of pics, so not dial up friendly.

    Looking good!

    I know your feeling about heated garages! Where are you sending your chrome?

    I've only sent 1 piece off for replating, to Denver Bumper. I'll be getting the bumpers done this summer. The headlight trim rings and lower grill slats, I bought new. For the price, I didn't think I could get my original set replated.
