A little Reunion inspiration got this one out of storage for front brakes and probably pulling the gas tank....

It's rough but runs decent.  Plans are not a restoration but just a 'usable' jeep.
 
Was thinking just an easy, cheap repaint when I brought it home but quickly got overruled by a then three year old pal (and his grandmother) so I named it and it became the Zebra jeep.
 
He's five today so I better get started on it before he graduates.Wink

  No bolts?....no problem, 1/2" bar stock welded  to frame and fender. (both front fenders are welded to the grill also) LOL
 
  The nail cotter pin? Can't say much about that 'cause I've been guilty of that myself.

Piddlin'......weather's been decent and I was needing a break from the 'House Project'.
 
Drove it all around the neighborhood last weekend without a speck of brakes.....none whatsoever. Felt good just to have it move without pushing it.
 
Left over 10" brakes from the parts pile should get it stopping.
