Day 6 of working on the thing. I finally noticed something - it took me a long time to catch on. Deb changed out my clock in the garage and no wonder it seems like I get nowhere on this thing and next day comes awful early. Pics kinda tell themselves. I really have to get the lead outa my arse...

If I recall correctly - there was still a FARM JEEP complete with Monroe 3 point hitch lingering around down there :shock::shock::shock::shock: All the gobble de gook bondo relieved of its agony off the windshield frame and framework is DONE. Dash is sandblasted along with the inside of the...

Duh - those are possum fence sections - must not have a large enough herd to know what to do with the few ya have.

Oh yeah - that other one has all new cylinders - shoes - drums minus the brake lines (now) as well. Ball park just in case your thinkin about it - about $800 takes it.

For my sake and for the sake of not pissin off the 1st Sgt tonight your hopeful dreams are my command, Just so you know - I lost 7 PRECIOUS minutes of NOT being able to work on the jeep just so I could take some stinkin pictures. What a Bro will not do for his friends. After watchin the UPS...

Clinto - to answer your question - yes they do !! Nice save - another great looking Willys save. Those pics made my hands twitch and hair stand up on my arms I got so excited - you should have that done in about a month :whistle:

Thanks - its appreciated. Dinger still has a few basics to purchase to be able to fire up the engine and also a clutch release cable needs to be replaced while I have the engine out of the other one and in the air to place into this one. Got a tiny bit done tonight (:popcorn:) but did not...

Ghostdriver - Olefart - pit crew - absolutely thumbs up on the project 43 and making it to the parade. 43 is looking spectacular and I am sure GD is not completed by any means. But to get the unit rolling with everything you had thrown at you is a testament to your skill levels and endurance...

Here is the status of the body. Have all the new brake lines and hoses swapped over - brake shoes and cylinders on the existing unit that was purchsed are in terrific condition and nearly look new. The system when bled activated all the cylinders to full stroke and fluid cleared with hard pedal...

When you fire up your torch - watch the tip - same as a cutting brun - you want the oxy (in the middle of the flame) to burn clear and as sharp in focus as you can get it. Also the rod is easily melted but you have to be sure the metal in area heated to accept the melted material you are...

did not have anything else to do but take pics

If PB had gotten this one before Dinger bougth it he would be a partial rich man. Here is the story: Upon delivery of the M38A1 from PB and the CAMO crew and an AWESOME lunch it was time to get busy unloading - it was a flip of the coin who was going to move first as lunch was filling and just...

Would have to agree with at least giving them a call before a post like this and have it explained to you. As far as a total outsider as myself is reading this and myself dealing with vendors all day long - as far as you might know some knucklehead in shipping just packed it up and shipped it...

I could care less what your signature says as I do not read them. When I do not have a life anymore and can do nothing but spend endless hours on here with no other life function and can get nitpicky about anything I will pm you before this change takes effect - till then you are safe with me...

:popcorn::popcorn::popcorn::popcorn: standing by for pics and the "word"

With some recent changes this week to the perspective of getting Dinger65's jeep completed - it appears at this time some major alterations in plans are to happen. I will know more here in a couple days if all this has taken place between the two parties involved as I am only the knucklehead...

Sounds like the 43 is coming back together nicely - is there enough anticipation in the fine craftmenship to look forward to an event to bring it to yet >?
