Restoring a Willys Jeep in 10 Minutes
ฝัง

- 3 years of hard work condensed into 10 minutes. This Jeep started life as a 1947 CJ2A. Around the Vietnam era, the owner installed an M151A2 waterproof drivetrain. I fell in love with the idea of a waterproof Jeep, and completed a full restomod. After tearing into the project I realized I needed to re-do all the modifications. Don't let the video fool you, it was a very difficult project with hundreds of hours in custom fabrication.
Calm down keyboard warriors. This is a 1947 CJ2A (civilian Jeep) produced 2 years after WWII, thus cannot possibly be war surplus.
MuddOxRacing what’s the difference? I own a 2014 Jeep but dig this little cjs...greetings from California
Hey there, i live in Bloomington too and just bought a 48. Engine is stuck, got any tricks besides Kerosene?
@@jasonsims8794 I only lived there during school. Check out my video with the yellow Jeep on the trailer for info on rescuing.
@@TurnNBurn oh gotcha, well it's nice to chat with you fellow Jeep lover. LOL
We just restored a 1942 Jeep that spent a few years vacationing in Europe
We take it off road put it through its paces
Thats what jeeps do
Does a great paint job...immediately goes mudding. I love it

That’s what your supposed to do in a Jeep.
@@jamesmylife6578 thank you
@@Harrowder22 I was talking to S Johnson.
@@jamesmylife6578 ok disculpas
Nice job. I'm glad to see some young guys working on vehicles. 40 years ago we all did this stuff but now they're few and far between.
The fact that it is more than 70 years and still runs is amazing
YES, but today ownwer´s of carcompanies, mostly are thinking of how to make shit people´s pay for, so that we can overloaod our pocket´s 🤣
I love the onest quality of older cars, today (for me), TOOOOOO much sick computers and Wiering(spagetti), that FUCK´s everything up !🤣

Good to see the restore is put to good use afterwards, and not left to sit all nice and pretty in a dry shed somewhere. Jeeps must have mud on them!

Chrysler was so dumb for making these trucks without roll bars, like if the car rolls over your dead! Can't believe they didn't know better
Impressive. Not many kids your age are this capable. Keep up the good work and most of all keep having fun doing it. You remind me of myself and my buddies when we were your age👍
must be nice to have every tool you need. good job man looks great!!!!
This kid amazes me, great knowledge and skills.
What a ride! Great job! I swear it was paddle-wheeling in that deepest pond. Sweet!
Youre a master of resurrection
nice work. a clean large space, access to good tools and large equipment no doubt makes restorations like this easier, of course along with know how and vision.
I don’t see how these videos don’t have a million views what a cool little Jeep!
Top of the line contender for army jeep driver recruit in WW-3.. 🤩
Tell me you weren't smiling the whole time he's doing laps in the mud !!!! Awesome video!
🙂 Nice job 🙂
Nuts dude,crazy kid. Sure do know your engines. Cool brother man
Wow what a transformation! Love the Willys 🙂

6:15 amazing LOOK 👌
Grandads do tend to exaggerate stories to there grandchildren to make a story much better nice job on the jeep
simply outstanding
An actual enthusiast
My last CJ-2A I sold before completing. I had 27 coats of black laguer on the frame and rear ends. It was set up for a 302 Ford I had but put it in my 50 Willys Hi-Wagon.
I would say "Resto-mod" in stead of Restored... But mad prop's on an absolutely wonderful work of rolling art. This was probably the best use of a MUTT engine/Drive I've seen to date. What type of AG tire did you put on it? They look simply mad going pond diving...
BKT 7.50 my favorite tire I've ever had
You need to put a free flow/bigger exhaust so that it can enhance its power when it’s taking a lot of oxygen while you are in the deep mud
You sure get a lot of use out of that forklift 👍 great job buddy!
Congratulations on completing this project!
Молодец. Каждый добропорядочный американец должен и обязан восстановить такой джип.
The real question is how we're gonna get my own out to Annapolis/DC to take Dad for a spin.
Awesome build I have a 56 CJ5 I want to restore
Nice! Congrats!
I wanted to see your set up on you’re water proof carburetor and distributor ?
Superb... Job Dude
Nice! Mine is a 1948. It took me 5 years to get it on the road......still not 100% done. I'm converting to disc brakes this summer.
What you doing during winter
my introvert friend : 9:09
Hoping to get mine running reliably soon. Gonna change all the fluids and clean the carb, test vacuume and timing... see where I'm at after that.
we need the long version
Very nice job!!!! Amazing!
thanks.. my family had a 43 MB from 1963 to 1985.. my dad forbade me from doing any mods.. it got sold to a local guy.. who restored it to army look.. i still see it when they drag it out on parade days.. i know it was ours as the shovel groove was filled with a flat panel.. the only mod i got away with . be sure to mod a garden hose with a 360 degree sprinkler nozzle to wash your frame rails out after dunking it.. or operating it in the snow/sleet..
Amazing jeep
"Jeep" the original quad, nice job

Man the lights and stickers
don't forget the diving suit
1:15 remind me of my one Freind..also used to do that in some kind of situation like that..😂✌
Awesome! Great work🔥
So when the exhaust and air hose are at the highest point of the vehicle you can drive through water if everything is well sealed?
Correct
Absolutely awesome!
I would love to have one of those!

All you need is money. Congrats!
That’s sick
I wish I could taks the body off mine and restore it that way but I have to settle for setting it on ramps and restoring the rust from the bottom.
I'm amazed how that only all took 10 minutes but I'm sure it took longer than 10 minutes as stated in the title of the video ????!!!!!
Actually 11 minutes
Final clip was lit
Amazing work 😍😍😍😍😍😑😍
where are you located ?
How much cost a restauration like this ?
Im in Ontario near LA i just get an old rusty beautiful 1942 wily❤❤
great work brother
Love seeing these old Jeeps restored!
Very nice build bit i wouldve painted the jerry can red
Como debe ser la ingenieria de esta máquina és genial.
Excelente trabajo, ojalá yo tuviera los medios para armarme uno igual ,soy un fanático de los Willys
My dad just bought 49 jeep. He bought it fully restored already lol.
Good video ★
What are those tractor tread tires? I want some so bad for my 48 2a, hah.
BKT 7.50-16
Good video

7.50-16 BKT
the first engine I ever rebuilt was with my Grandfather... an old Willys
Awesome! Great work!
What was the complete cost
Beautiful jeep. 🤓👍
Question: how many gallons of WD40 do you think you needed to fix everything
PB blaster!
@@TurnNBurn I see I see, how many cans did you burn through though?
It's very cute
How much was it?
FORKLIFT CERTIFIED
Very very very good
very nice jeep! amazing work on it, congrats!
but why MUTT drivetrain? it was already in there or you choosed for some special reason?
Here i'm using GM151 engine with original gearbox and transfer case (soon I will put 5 speed gearbox 😈)
GREAT JOB!!!!
IS it for sale?
Wish you didn't live so far away. I would come over and help. I live clear over in southwest Washington state.
Iam from India how much price this jeep
Wow! If I can make like that ...👍
Your motor needs a turbo, it lacks power. I have years of experience building Jeeps. I'm 74 years old and still love them.
Do you have any tips for me? I think of buying a used 2005 Wrangler and I want to set it higher because I would go Mudding and Crawling with it, and also do you have all terrain wheels that you would recommend?
Badass poeer jeep..
How much brother plz reply me
NICE garage, so big haha
Are those new tires 8-24 size
7.50-16
Ok was just wandering
Boooaa ey! a lot of work! nice that old jeeps are rebuilt! Nur only the tire donesn`t work at all. why no original tires? You have to
like it ;) Otherwise I just wanted to say-greats job!
Greetings from Germany :)
Hello from the USA! I picked the tractor tires for better traction in the mud.
@@TurnNBurn oki :D...Good Morning ^^
This is amazing, love those pizza cutters mounted on there!

Nice job 👌
Wooh guy u r great n talented
Looks like you don't need to use AWC to make that jeep waterproof!
nice jeep
Bro awesome you alone in your work shop shall I also come to help with you 😍😍
Круто получилось.
I remember ads in magazines back in the 80's selling crate military jeeps and motorcycles. There extremely cheap. I am just curious to understand when he said he did this after the war... That it was impossible. I'm not challenging, I just don't understand. I KNOW people bought these kits in the early 80's the ads were in Popular Mechanics.
It was always a scam. By the 1980s those Jeeps were at least 45 years old. You'd send in $50 to the advertisement, then they'd send you the address of a government auction site where you could bid on old surplus. Nobody got one in a crate.
@@TurnNBurn A scam in the back of a magazine? No way! I guess that makes sense. I bought a Dj 6 I wanted to turn into a drag jeep, but I never got around to it and it got sold. It would have been awesome with Wheelie bars!
Can u stick a LS1 in it?
It's a tight fit.
@@TurnNBurn yes it is ':)
