Thanks for thinking of me. I saw that one but I already have one of that model. Love to have a CJ3-CJ7 next.
The only ones that have come up have been way too much to use as wall art.

No worries, was just crawling eBay and came across it.

P.S. the "willys" panel came up great. I recon it will be a very nice feature point.

Had a few photos left on the memory card so thought I would put them up before we leave for holidays on Friday.


Welded the sill back into the panel. I welded it from the inside as hard to smooth out the weld on the inside corners otherwise. Had to take into account the angle of the sill that is for the same as before to not only match the door, but also that it pointed towards the A pillar.


The sill is made from 1.2 mm/18G and the panel from 0.9 mm/20G. The join from the factory was in line with the edge of the B pillar but I extended the sill into the end of the original panel pressing instead. Be stronger this way.


The other side was not as bad but was very thin and could not easily tack a few pin holes. Want to clean up that factory join anyway so did the same to this side as well.


Both sides done now.

hey Marcus will ask here since u seemed to have looked at every detail reading the street rod manual it says vehicles older than 49 but carry over models can be allowed ie a car released in 48 but still made in 52

does that mean willys pick up trucks and wagons can be a street rod or is it only if there was no significant model updates eg willys trucks went from a 4cy in 47 to a 6 in the 50's
