Wakefield Willys Update 5.3

Well, my last update was in March.  That does not mean work has not been completed or on going.  Just not posting anything on the blog.

I have 3 projects I wanted to get done in the Spring.

Dashboard (completed, painted and waiting to be installed)
Windshield (not completed, metal pieces fabricated, still welding to be done and primed and painted.)
Rear Valence (not completed, welded and primed.  Almost done)

The Rear Valence is in the picture.  After some welding and fabrication of some steel pieces to reenforce the strength of the rear valence it is almost ready to be painted.  The rear valence on the 1960 Willys is hardly recognizable.  This is off of the 1957 Willys.  Not perfect but solid.

Within the next few days, it will be painted and set aside to be installed.  Progress.
