I fired up the two CJ2A boyz this afternoon and sure hope Spring is soon to be a reality rather then a short tease here in the North Country of NY. It was very nice to hear the melodious sound of the "Go Devils" running in the yard for a bit.
Winter has not been that bad this year but winter is winter & I am over it & can't wait to begin WILLYS Play for the year. I was fortunate enough to score a beautiful REEDKINI top here on THE PAGE (thanks for backing off on that Dana). It was skilfully stitched together by none other than the world renowned Jpet and a wonderful top it is! I also was fortunate enough to make some WILLYS parts trips recently and meet with some great fellow JEEP folks and picked up & swapped some great WILLYS treasures. Thanks guys for keeping the WILLYS JEEP History alive and working. Edited by 3-48s - 01 Mar. 2017 at 12:27am |

Thanks Gil. The dual wheels have saved my arse in a few mucky spots on my property. This is my "Gray Mule" in the muck before duals. |

Nice pics!
I'm across the lake feeling your pain. Visited the land of sad and lonely toys myself the other day. |

Spring? I'm still waiting for winter. It's unseasonably warm here in Tampa. This is prime working on the Willys time, but it's too hot to get greasy and dirty doing projects.
I know all of you in colder climes are saying 'boo hoo for you', but we never really got a winter here yet. |

I have a friend living out side of Fort Myers and she complains about the heat and humidity there. She grew up in New Orleans. She misses Tucson. |

Thanks! I'm in Stowe. What year is the Jeepster? (Doh...I see in your signature it's a '50!) You should come down to the Stowe Car show this summer. Would be awesome to add to the Willys crowd.

Hey Pete, I guess my shed does resemble the bat cave if you turn your head sideways & squint real hard. I actually do have bats in there too! Your mind works in mysterious ways! WILLYS folks tend to breath in a lot of fumes. I can only imagine what you see when you look at the clouds. |

Is it snowing over your way this morning?
I was not happy to see the white stuff coming down again when I woke up.

Well, it is still winter, right?
