1945 WILLYS CJ2A Complete

This is the Last build walk around I'll do. the Jeep is a daily driver now. When i talk about the bottle opener being bad luck i meant it was bad luck because i didn't have it mounted on the jeep. For now on I'll be posting fun with the Jeep. I'm hoping to hit some trails as soon as possible. One thig i forgot to point out is a small bag of 1945 coins in the tool box. i found a bunch of them here and there. i thought it would be cool to have a bunch of coins from the year of my jeep. Thanks for watching.

Can you drive these on the interstate highway?

[mikeg576]

@splashdown50 the jeep can do as fast as 58 mph. i don't drive it that fast because its not good for the motor. it does 35-40 comfortably. so no i cant drive anywhere that is 65mph. 55mph and below.

thank you for watching

Mike great job, have you ever thought about putting the column shift back in it?

[mikeg576]

@AndrewTheCelt no, i drive this everyday and also a lot off road. the old column shift was replaced by willys because they just arn't convenient to drive. it was a sloppy, and expensive set up. the direct floor shift makes more sense and is cheaper. that's kinda the way i built the jeep. this cj is function over form. it being orig isnt as inportant as it being a safe daily driver.

thanks for watching.
