That sure looks like a Willys part #. Ford-shaped, but a Willys #? Perhaps I am mistaken! (that would NOT be new!) The "new" bumps look nicely done, though, as does the rest of the Jeep. |

There's a reason it's called Ol' Unreliable

Finally ,I have my jeep inspected and licensed. It's a blast to drive after more than 4 years of fun working on it off and on. If you see a guy with a big smile with a old Willys jeep on the east coast it's probably me

Unbelievable! But be honest. How much of the original jeep is still there.

The before and after is mind blowing! I admire your vision. In it's original shape, i would have walked away. Don't know that I could have envisioned that result.
