New member from Maryland...soon
Hello,
Nice to find a great forum for Willys. I grew up with a 47 CJ2A at our family cabin. Learned to work on motors on the green machine and learned to drive with it. I think I put about 50k miles on it driving all over the back country for years, lol. Great memories. I'm nearing the end of another year in Afghanistan and I've enjoyed reading the forum comments and posts during my down time. I'm tinkering with the idea of finding a Willys to work on during my destress/re-integration time when I get back home. In the meantime, thanks for letting me join such a great forum.

Just a warning.
If you decide to look for an old Jeep truck, you need to know they are chick magnets.
First the little kids want to sit in it and "drive".
Next their mothers want to try as well.
Then, here is where it gets interesting, GrandMa wants to get her turn!
Just a bright spot for you over there in the rock pile/sandbox.

Update as a formal member of the flat fender club
Update!! Good news and not so good news, lol. The great news, I'm now a formal member of the flat fender club. Fresh of the boat from Japan, my wife took delivery of a 1980 Mitsubishi Jeep still in original Army kit. The not so good news, I'm still in Afghanistan, was extended due to the stuff going on, looking very much forward to getting home and tinkering on the Jeep!
