I still like the Mexican blanket thing for seat covers. Works with the paint scheme and the tacos on the cowl. Just sayin'

Thank you, Sir...they really are VERY comfortable. Just hope we don't have to test out those semi-cheesy golf cart seat belts.....though they're actually installed pretty solidly. Used some big & thick washers on the back sides..... |

Wow, talk about the power of the pen. Didn't know how powerful these pages were and the speed at which you work. So I think that works with the wheels and body color, she is giving off attitude now.
I think you need to head out to the desert with us next weekend.Phil

Great Jeep, really like your creativity.....So glad to see you didn't mess with the original paint. I talk to a guy with an original (green)1948 Indian chief,(show winner Waeson OH.) He said the judges told him original paint doubles the value. I know I'm comparing jeeps to bikes but I think the same thing would apply. Just thought I 'd mention that in case your considering painting. Joe Wadoyado

We've had at least a dozen people tell us that the current paint job on the Willys is probably worth more than the Willys......
