The Jeeper Warehouse






15th Saturday, 1st resto day!
Hi, fellows!
Today we, Natxo and me, have started the common operation of Willys restoration!!! Buf!!! What a work!!! Rust, trash, crushed steel, etc. Natxo has an early composite Willys MB model (circa 1942-43) with a French diesel Indenor engine (we´re looking for her Go Devil) and me a "frankenjeep" from 50s: a CJ3A model. Well, so she looks...I think the chassis frame cames from a Spanish assembled CJ3B so it could be from a CJ2A, L-134 "Go Devil" engine, CJ3A frontal axle, rear axle is a full floating one (from MB)...He, she´s a real mess! The former owner told me they get the vehicle from 2 of them and he´s right!
Just take a look:

I hope you´ll enjoy the pics! Also, take a look at the MB bonnet holes. Are those common in any Armée or US Army variation? Or are they hand made?
