    On a cool scale of 1 to 10, that’s somewhere around a 17! Nicely executed,, without being over done. Stay safe👍

    When I was circa 10 years old my dad took me to Rock Springs Wyoming. We visited a childhood friend of his. His name was something like Crazy Larry. He had a Willys fixed up like this one. The car top was Chevrolet, the same vintage. I was very impressed. The jeep had PTO winches mounted front and back. My dad and Larry talked about the good old days and wondered how they were still alive doing what they did around Rock Springs. The whole time I’m wondering about the rear winch.
    Larry…”I told people this Jeep could climb anything. A guy said how about that tree? I threw the winch line over a branch of the tree and up it went. Now the guy said how you gonna git down? The Willys sat right down on its butt. So I added the rear winch.”

    At the end of World War II, while the GI's were waiting for the prisoners to be repatriated, and the then for available transportation to go home, there was a competition to see which unit could create the most interesting vehicle using a Jeep as the basis. Coachwork was created from aircraft drop tanks, canopies, and obtainable vehicle parts. This vehicle looks like someone's creation of the same type of vehicle, after they returned home.

    You didn't even show the large heater under the dash! That's our Willys Airstream, Ray is my dad. I rebuilt the Ford carb, picked out the tires, and am adding some interesting bumpers and other additions. But he has done the most work on it. I would like to identify the Stude-block but there is no stamping where it should be. I am hoping to take it to Oregon for a Gambler 500 Run in the near future. Still... we have TOO MANY RIGS! 😁

      I love this flatfender! It deserves a frame off restoration to the original owner’s intended design. It would be beautiful as an army green or even a shiny dark red. A roof rack and a spare tire/jerry can mounted on the back. A shovel/axe/extinguisher setup and a winch or WWII braided rope on the front bumper. She needs a mini tear drop camper trailer to tow also! Please please please do this one up right! Keep us posted!!!

    Early Willys jeeps had the sunken headlights as well. I have a January 42 slat grill. And it’s headlights are mounted the exact same way as this one. Ford’s contribution was coming up with a stamped version of the grill that didn’t require so much time to weld together.
