Most of the people don`t realise how much work it takes to restore a car. If you a not a professional, it takes 5 to 10 times longer. You`ve tried very hard to do it, so much so, even your little dog wanted to help you. Keep on learning & evolving, kid. Some day you will have your own garage, restoring precious jewels from the past. I don`t want to guess about you, kid, but, your Jeep, will survive WWIII. For sure. Congrats!

That was the most memorizing video I've ever watched! Well done as a backyard mechanic who's restored a 1956 series 1 and a 1965 series 2A Land Rover I appreciate the work you've done! I hope to have room again one day to restore an old Willys to The Desert Rats configuration complete with sand ladders and expansion tank bolted to the front grill! Who knows maybe even the machine gun mounted in the back :-) unfortunately war-era Willy's are pretty rare up here in Canada Land Rovers a little bit more common because we use them in the Forestry Department!

I watched the full video and I think this is the most inspiring thing in the Utube community given your age, skills and focus by taking the time to film every step of the project ( mostly) I can only say that your hard work and passion resulted in a great piece of restoration. If that Willy could talk it wound be screaming " Hurrah "

Excellent restoration, the jeep was beautiful, for sure you will not have fun as before, wherever you went anywhere, but the service was worth it, and whoever did not like it is because they never had a jeep, and jeep is like that, it is to use and like it, it's a car that you never forget, big hug.

I too am going to have to do a full tear down, but your video is quite inspiring. For a young guy, you did an amazing job, seriously. But more to the point; thank you, for still after all that hard work, taking it out, and wheeling it, and HAVING FUN! Too often these rigs are restored, and kept on a plinth. Its great to see someone enjoying the fruits of their labor from the drivers seat, and not a lawn chair staring at it in a car show somewhere. Props.

My cousin was in the motor pool in the Alabama National Guard. He said that in the late 70s, while a new building was being built on a base he was on, the contractor was digging and discovered several long buried and forgotten MB Willys Jeeps in crates. They were fully disassembled and packed in cosmoline. He said they base mechanics spent a year assembling them. I don't know for sure if it's true, but it sounded neat.

great job.. i grew up with a 43 willys MB. mom and dad never let me take it apart like you did. i actually do that to cars now.. glad you went to front disc.. hopefully you will find a dual system master cylinder for it to make it even safer to drive.. find some super magnets.. nickle or quarter sized and place them inside the fuel tank down in a corner.. it will keep the sediment out of the fuel system , fuel pump and carb. when you drove out of the garage the first time it was kinda stumbling.. you might want to look up a carb manual.. i don't know which of the carter carbs you have.. and closely examine your low speed circuit.. also known as the idle transition circuit. something is not quite right there. idle transition circuit supplies fuel to the idle mixture needle. but also to the idle transition slot .. and is the only fuel coming into the motor till the primary circuit starts flowing out of the booster nozzles at around 1800 RPM. then it decreases till it stops flowing for the most part around 2400 or 2500 rpm.. really nice work .. oh.. you should see if you can add some shims under the head light hinge plates to bring the headlights centered thru the grill. they are too low and don't look as good as they should. i was also thinking back to the A team tv show... they never reloaded their guns either.. just sprayed and sprayed and sprayed.. blanks ..not primer and paint like you did..
