    It's funny how this vehicle always makes you think of a certain person. Friend of mine had one of these painted up white put a flatbed on it and it looks sharp. He's not around anymore.

    Devon-can always count on your for some good laughs! Might want to lube those "butt plugs" before you use them 🙂. and the comment about changing from or to a stick since its 2024-good one.

    I always wanted one of those, but they disappeared 20 years ago around here. I had the predecessor Willys pickup at one time, which also ran off of a boat tank. Had a big step bumper that wrapped around the back, so the fuel line was just run through where the filler neck was to the tank right there on the bumper.
    Was it manual swapped, or did someone need to replace the steering column at some point and could only find a replacement from an automatic?

    • @RealSteelFabrications
      @RealSteelFabrications  4 місяці тому

      Would love to have a Willys Jeep sometime as well. I’m guess it was manual swapped because it has a trans tunnel that is blue which doesn’t match the rest of the floor pan.
