Project Ground-Up: Part 7
Wrapping up the retro rideAh, yes! It’s done—that is until we start working on it again or decide something we did is just not good enough. About two and a half years ago we saw and then bought what was little more than a pile of patina’d green Willys sheetmetal. It was parts of a classic ’56 CJ5 with plenty of stress cracks in the tub, lots of missing parts, a little rust, a title, and some history. Sure, we did not work on the ’56 for all of that time. The project languished for more months than we care to count as everyday life passed us by. That makes reaching the end all the sweeter. Now we have a fully functional custom Jeep to cruise the back roads and maybe occasionally hit a trail or two. The Ground-Up build has been a blast, filled with fun, hard work, frustration, and finally a great sense of relief and accomplishment. The finished product looks retro, starts right up, and buzzes (or rattles) down the road like a dream.
