Vette(s): 1972 conv., sunfire yellow, blk interior, blk vinyl and convertible top. Off frame restoration with American Speed 383 stroker engine producing 500hp plus a 200hp NOS system. MSD ignition. Hooker super competition headers with chambered exhaust.
 Be careful now Barry. Don't run over too big a pile of cow dung with that old jeep. They flip quite easily.

Laugh Jim with my 1952 Jeep Willys !  It was a radio car from our army , bought in '52 and sell'd in 1988. So no WW car but still a copy...  Whe enjoyed it already a lot in the woods with my granddaughter in her childseat between the front seats and back bench. She's crazy about that jeep , only 13 months old ! When parked she's in no time on my seat turning that huge steering wheel, pulling the shifter and playing with ignition key !

She like's it more than my C3....  ofcourse there's no roof at all !

Perhaps the kaky color ? or the quietness of that 60 hp jeep-engine?.... Whe already drove 50 mph ! I will have to fix first the play in the steering colum to go faster..... 

And flipping ? yepyep, from behind the jeep is just on bicycle wheels...  so i 'm looking to mount bigger ones....  what do you think of 285/50 R18 ???  about the same hight but a bit wider....

Ok, the standard exhausts are in place , just rare to see that there's no suspension between the clamp under the gearbox up to the fixation on the end of the dampers.

The delco shaft deliverd is wrong. The profile on top doesn't match my rotor and centrifugal weights ???? I orderd another as i now was told that there is a standard and a performance one ?????

so , still waiting parts....  but no problem : i enjoy the Willys ...
