The replacement body you mentioned I think would be a waste. These jeeps are mostly straight sheet metal and what little is curved is only 2 dimensional. Who wants to throw away three grand on a body that could be better spent on your VX anyways?:bgwg:

LOL...looks like they've been using it as the "19th hole" for chipping practice...Originally Posted by CrnCnn
Back in high school, my wheelin' buddy Jim (Trooper Jim, my roomie @ the Rock) had a 46' Willys w/ a 283 bowtie under the hood. MAN we had a lotta fun trashin' that thing...

This will be a S...L...O...W project for sure.
I tow it home (parents house actually) sunday.

Well I finally got more pics since taking it home(Parents' home anyway). It needs a LOT of body work and I am uncertain about the motor and drivetrain right now. It has been nice so I just need to get over there and decide where to start.
Any opinions on where to start would be appreciated. I dont plan on a full restore. I would like to make it wheelable and street legal, maybe.

Dude, if you can get it running that would be loads of fun to wheel in!
I say start by pulling the motor so you can evaluate the rust areas that need work.

wow, looks like you have your work cut out for you...
would be a BLAST if you got it fixed up though...
