I just got the '48 Willys CJ2A running after a year...

This was it last year...




Then I sanded it down to discover the tortured body under the filler...



Here it is now.


I still have some work to do, but it's back to moving under its own power.

Looks good, I have fixed up a m38a1 (war cj5) in the past. I know all about beat up bodies. They are a lot of fun. Congrats on getting her going again. Trevor

I learned to drive in a '42 Willy's! I love those old Jeeps.
