Well after much anguish and thought I have decided to sell this project. I really haven't been able to do much other than remove parts for sand blasting. Since I have a running A2 project that I am currently working on and drive are then farm and country roads I am going to stick with that. I can see this 151 sitting for a couple more years before it gets anything done to it. This Willys needs to be on the road. I have two fellow members of my Lone Star MVPA chapter very interested in buying the 151. They have more skills and resources than I to do it justice. :(
