Restoring a Willys Jeep in 10 Minutes

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.

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 !🤣 TK🇳🇴

[@jobiazgarza9571]

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.

[@danfarris135]

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👍

[@TheBearDenPhotography]

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!

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

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...

[@TurnNBurn]

BKT 7.50 my favorite tire I've ever had

[@waynep343]

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..

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

[@pocogamer9430]

What was the complete cost

[@robertsnyder5149]

Your motor needs a turbo, it lacks power. I have years of experience building Jeeps. I'm 74 years old and still love them.

[@standardheat-fs8159]

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?
