Ok, here you go. I got the body on today after getting Vortex sprayed on everything but the outside.

Here is the most recent shot. All the smoked glass installed. We took it on a 500 mile expedition this weekend and it worked awesome!

Interior shots!

I so want to buy a pre-1976 vehicle and rebuild it - for smog/license reasons in California..

Not a lot of photos of the interior quite yet. Here are a few. I will have more as I get it completed in the coming months. Fixing up an older vehicle has to be one of the single most enjoyable American past times ever!!

JTX,
What engine is that (in your Dad's Willys)? It looks like a 289 Ford but I've never seen exhaust manifolds like that. Did Willys make a V8?

Midnight,
That's an awesome ride. I'm jealous!

 

[JTX]

Its a chevy v6. Forget which one, ill find out though.

Guys, I have to stop hi-jacking this thread. It's not really about my project. Check it out on Pirate4x4.

I really just wanted to post up some inspiration. A project like this takes incredible commitment and we can all use some encouragement to keep going.

Back to JTX's build...

 

[JTX]

I dont mind bro, this isnt much of a build thread anyway. lol. I havent done anything

 

[MidnightBurn]

So, how's the project coming along? Any updates?

Here is a picture of mine with 42's on it. I thought maybe this will give you some new encouragement to keep the project moving. Enjoy!!
