Wakefield Willys Update 2.3

Well, we have come to a halt on the brakes. Here is why.

I had bought the right parts for the project but soon discovered that somewhere along the way someone upgraded the front brakes. We compared the 1957 with the 1960 and the front brakes are different. They should be the same.

Now the upgrade was a good idea, so we have decided to keep the current set up. But that meant sending back parts and ordering new parts. The problem there was that the new parts are way more expensive. $200 more to be exact. Hence why we have stopped, no pun intended.

So the plan is to sell off unused parts on eBay and Craigslist and raise the $200 needed to get the correct upgrades. Hopefully we can get back on track very very soon.
