I don't like to leave negitve comments but I'll make an exception today. I love Jeeps and I own two. Also a fan of square body GMs. However, it it my opinion that this project was not well thought out at all, and two potentially very solid projects were sacrificed to produce one, not all that impressive vehicle. Not what I expect from a Power Nation show. Disappointing.
You supposedly have concerns about the rear wheel opening. Yet, You have expressed that it will look fine with the front wheels pushed a little more forward You have already shown us that you are willing, and competent enough to modify the frame to your needs You know, and start with the idea that you are going to have to custom fabricate body mounts You have already removed the engine, so you know that you will have to locate and custom fabricate to your one-off drivetrain. You remove the firewall so as to completely free up what’s necessary to position the body anywhere you want. Yet, You get a rear axle that is completely off with the centerline of the body, and now is shifted back enough that you have to raise the body way off the ground, and/or cut into the factory location of the fuel filler and by and large, cut your classic vehicle up to fit a problem you created. This a collective mistake, that I hope is rectified in a pleasing solution. Lastly, if, in the next episode, I see blocks used on the front of this thing, I will never watch again. That would just be disrespectful to all of us.
@@bmstylee nope. You're all over that little detail billy. But it is freedom.of speech, and maybe, just maybe, a way to reach out to others with the same interest(s). You good with that..?
And that's after they cut up and shortened the frame to change the wheelbase. Maybe take some measurements to see what the wheelbase actually needs to be before you shorten the frame? Maybe?
Best Car Engineering Workshop : Power Nation*🌠 ~ Rebuild Willys 1953" Best Live Workshop Show : Bigolive Show By ~ Power Nation🌠 ..... Cheerio.🌠☁🚗☁🌠👍👍👍🌠🌠🌟🌠🌠.
Hey guys, I'm a huge fan of the channel. Love the diverse builds! I wanted to know if you or anyone reading this knows of a shop in Socal that offers financing. I have a 1969 Chevelle that I'd like to have finished with a unique theme. Thanks in advance. 👍🏻👍🏻
@@OldGriz708 my uncle told me the same thing but, I want it to look and run a specific way. I was slightly considering trading it for one that was closer to what I wanted but, then I'm sure I'd still want to change abunvh of things on it. If I get it done my way I know I'll never sell it and to me it would be worth it.
It's happening. They have already broken the engine once and was rebuilt. If it was a Willy's gasser a blower is perfect. That big open snorkel on top will clog with mud and other crap in no time.
alright.. the first 4 minutes of the video was dumb. not sure about everyone else but id rather not watch yall drive around forever bantering back and forth about the build, lets just get to it!
Next up on Carcass, we'll cut up this classic Corvette and make a Camaro!
A 63 split window fuelie 4 speed to make a 1997 6 cylinder auto.
I love this. I can't care what car snobs think....if I can cut up a unicorn to make a drift missle and piss off purists ....cracks beer😏
I'd pay to see that. Sounds like a one of a kind car 😁
@@tadracket448 id love to turn some old Italian sports car into a LS powered , rev limiter bouncing , wall smacking drifter 😈
Least favorite show of the power nation shows.
Why would you purchase such a unique vehicle only to pull the body off and discard it? Seems like you could have just gotten any old truck for that.
Should of built a custom tube chassis for the willys body and built the couch into an overland camper

Still upset about the CUCV.
Took two desirable vehicles and made one Frankenstein.
I was thinking the truck as is would have been a great trail rig / mobile workshop / sleeper.
This episode is basically
Today on powernation we covert a 1970's bronco into a 1999 explorer
A 1999 explorer limited at least we the legendary 4.0 SOHC
They talk way to much in my opinion. Show more work and way less talking and then I think you might jus have something for a decent show
Watch it at 1.5 speed on mute.
My favorite part of the project is the 2002-2004 Honda Odyssey leather seats in the Willys haha :-)
If they were gonna do this at least buy a k5 frame so you wouldn’t have to do as much butchering
What did you do with the cucv m1010 parts and body
I can see why they're whacking away at this Willys. It's a rough one that would never be a collectible. Someone just threw a coat of paint on it.
What’s with all the talking while driving around, seems to be a new completely unneeded thing, less talk, more work
Good show.
Looks like to me the rear wheel well isn’t centered with the axle.
Bingo! My very first thought looking at the finished product.
In SS trailblazer you don't see them that often
thanks from spain!
I thought originally they had a 632 built for a Willy's project they were doing when the woman was still on. Is this the same truck?
Measure twice, cut once. Or just measure once...
I have an all numbers matching 1953 cj3B with 28,000 miles on it. An original OG Ramsey pto driven winch, etc. Maybe someone wants to buy it??
This ain't the classifieds bro.

@@OldGriz708 hell ya!
@@2tubesOtoothpaste actually it's spam comments.
What happened to the big block that was going in it
The rear wheels aren't centered in the wheel well. It looks dumb
And that's after they cut up and shortened the frame to change the wheelbase. Maybe take some measurements to see what the wheelbase actually needs to be before you shorten the frame? Maybe?
I would’ve kept the steps
Edward's ironworker, huh? Must not been able to afford a Piranha.
Edward's DONATED the Ironworker that's why the PLUGS
You should have pushed the body back an inch it'll look better

If you have to finance it you shouldn't do it. You are setting yourself up for a nightmare.

People who can't even afford to build a car in a video game getting mad in the comment😂😂😂😂
please no blower on the willy's

very cool 😁✌🖖👌👍😎

I get why people like to custom, but raising a vehicle is very dangerous and is stupid, Engineers designed these cars that way for a reason.
People lift trucks everyday. If you don't drive like a douchebag very low risk.
Engineers designed the vehicles to sell 100,000's with the best PROFIT!!!! and least LIABILITY
