Foiled by my own Handiwork!


This is kinda funny.

See that small grey primer piece of steel?   It is not suppose to be there.

So as I was tearing apart the rear of the jeep, I was getting frustrated.  Why is this corner not coming apart?  It was acting like it was reenforced.  How is that possible?

So as I was able to see inside the right rear corner, and I see this grey L shaped piece of steel welded into the corner.  And then I remembered, I put it there!

Last year when finishing up on the passenger side, I saw some rot in that rear corner and thought I would take care of that by welding a nice strong piece of steel in there.

Fast forward to today, and I am cutting and cutting and getting no where.  I had to laugh.  Foiled by my own handiwork!



Wakefield Willys Update 5.6

Just a quick update.


These 2 rear panels came in from Classic Enterprises, and I am prepping them for installation.  I cleaned them, and will prime them, paint them and set them aside.















Here is the progress on the rear of the jeep, this is going to take a while......
