I hope you dont widen the grill. In my minds eye it would look a bit strange . But having the engine poking out each side would look better .

Beautiful truck, Sir! I've just discovered your channel and thrilled that I have! My brother is also a Willy's 'fanatic' and has built multiple CJ's and MJ's of varying years. He built a '62 Truck, and a '48 Jeepster (resto mods). Both of which have won multiple car shows, with the truck being featured in 4x4 magazines years ago here in the States. I was a precision sheet metal fabricator for several years and assisted in a few of his builds. Unless you're a builder, one has no idea the hours required in restoration/building vehicles. Much respect and kudos to your lovely bride for being a trooper as well! I've subscribed and shared your channel with my brother.

hi marcus is this going to be as quick a build as the pick up ?....i bet it will be just as good if not better coz it is for your wife. cheers jailbar joe

Will-ease not williss. Cheers From California 😎

HEMI!!! Drop a HEMI on it!

Awesome project Marcus, I was wondering what donor car you were going to use, I must admit I never thought it would be a Chrysler 300. Awesome choice

Following with interest, Marcus!

That's in amazing condition considering its age.

This is great mate. Subscribed.

Hi Again! First I've seen your pickup...WOWW! YOU are truly talented so now I'm not worried about the Ol' girl. If only I were a tad younger (I'm 76) and after 40 years as a collision and frame guy, i envy anyone with the spunk to turn out a project as beautiful as that pickup. Bravo!!

You've really set yourself a task with this lot Marcus. I'll follow along with much interest as I did with the truck build. If anyone can pull this off and make it look like it's supposed to be like that, I'm sure you can.

A 50's chevy truck front axle should bolt up and can be adapted to disc's cheaply. 32 Pontiac Six is my other channel , feel free to ask any questions as my car was in the same shape.

Bravo....you've saved an obscure automotive relic! This is a very complete example, which will make life a little easier. I own a 1928 Falcon Knight 4 door which lived in the back of a warehouse since 1948, and was robbed of any usable parts after being discovered by Willys club members...so theres not much left. But I started to restore it, getting the body rust dipped and re-doing the wood with red oak. After 5 years, still trying to find a parts car or parts, I had no choice but to make it a hot rod, and that was 10 years ago. Parts for these cars are non-existant. I live in Detroit Michigan, U.S.A., In the heart of "the rust belt', Where not much survives past 20 years. I've gathered you're in Australia with Holden , right hand drive and all. Best of luck...I'll be watching.

This is going to be awesome!

Looks like it's going to be interesting. If I was to build it, I'd put a Jeep 4.0 in it.

Super cool project Marcus. Looking forward to this one

I love you but I can’t handle watching another 15 year project. 😅

I'm here for it. Looking forward to another of your masterpieces.

I am so excited to be able to watch your progress on here. I followed the truck build religiously back when it was on your gojeep page and cant wait for this one! Will this one also have a blog as well? Thanks for all the hard work and content!

Kaiser bought Willys, American Motors bought Kaiser, then Chrysler bought American Motors, so that Chrysler is the spiritual successor to the Willys!

Ran when parked...back in 1941! LOL 😆.

I knew you've were planning this project but figured that you would at least wait for the paint to dry on the truck before starting another project! I'm looking forward to following your progress.

Have fun! Looks like a great project! ❤

Beautiful Marcus, paint is perfect for it. I was going to suggest the next project could be on a Suzuki frame to give you more room to move, lol.

Beautiful metal work and good proportion

Colour looks amazing, i have been following this build for, must be 15 years or more, been a fantastic Journey, would love to see it in the flesh one day.

Great video Thanks for showing us your amazing jeep All the very best with it it Thank you 😊😊😮

looks amazing Marcus

She looks awesome out in the sun, I was holding my breath watching you squeeze her out of the shed, I don’t know how you did it, I would have made a total mess of it. Congratulations mate on a absolute awesome

Marcus I know you get a lot of the same type of comments about how amazing your work is and how beautiful the truck is which of course you are well deserving of. I wanted to tell you that you would absolutely win any car show/event you entered the Willys in over here in the US. There are cars here that win big awards that don't look as good as this and don't even come close to this level of detail. Congratulations on the end of this one and the start of the next one. I'll be watching :)

Absolutely brilliant art done by a genuis craftsman!!

Congratulations ,that is one nice job , WELL DONE !!

That was the best suspense thriller of the year. And such a happy ending. You should be very proud of a fantastic achievement.

Bloody great job mate. Such a fantastic journey you've allowed me to come with you. As I've said perfect. Get it out in the sun and enjoy it. What will be the plans for project 2.

Perfect build and that colour is beautiful , Congrats on the build and i look forward to following the next build .

It is great to see a project come together thanks for showing us your metal skills throughout this build,I hope you have many happy trips in it

That is fantastic I have been watching you do this from the start in fact even before in your XJ days when I had one I ended up with a 2002 WJ 4ltr as I said you have made a fantastic job of building it for me the problem with it is its just to perfect if I had it I would be to worried to take it out onto the road you can drive as careful as you like but there is always some fool who could bump into you and scratch it I will be interesting to see the other one when its finished in ten years time.

She is outstanding. Well done. So pleased for you guys. 👌👏👏

Such a beauty! That colour is amazing. Great job!

Love the color it's a 1954 ???

It's a bloody good job Marcus.

Incredible work I love the hydrologic actuators. The paint fit and finish is amazing and it has come along way since I seen it in bare metal at the Mooroolbark fate/ car show well done 👍 been watching the buil on and off since you mentioned to me that day of your TH-cam channel 😊

Fantastic Mark, What a build. I've watched every episode from when you first picked up the cars and waited patiently as each new update dropped. Your attentio to detyail and workmanship is something a lot of people can only dream of. What a wonderful project and something you can truly be proud of. I'll keep an eye out for you on the roads. COngratualtions on the completion of this amasing project. Thanks for sharing this amazing journey. Happy travels.

Well done Marcus, coolest grandparents on the internet

Fantastic Work Marcus , cant believe that this is the same Jeep that was sitting next to my blitz near bendigo . My blitz still hasn`t progressed but you have built a masterpiece ! .

Loving it large you are the master !!! Your mummy told me you will never be cured 😜

What journey this has been. I remember the first time I came across this build in Oz rodder forum. I've followed along every week for an update and blown away with the quality of this build. With the demise of that forum, I waited patiently for a TH-cam update. Marcus you are an incredibly talented builder. I hope to one day be able to see this in person. Can't wait to see where you go with the other car parked quietly sitting in the garage for its turn.

Wives are very handy , when your in need

You are an artist mate

Unbelievably good Marcus. It looked great in the bare metal finish, but now it's totally awesome.
