I BOUGHT A BASIC, UNRESTORED 1953 WILLYS WAGON IN 2001 AND BEGAN BUILDING IT FOR MYSELF IN 2003. IT TURNED INTO A BEAUTIFUL VEHICLE.

THE CHASSIS WAS REPLACED, REAR FLOORING WAS LEVELED A CORRECT REAR TOP DOUBLE WINDOW WAS INSTALLED, ELECTRIC DOOR WINDOWS WERE ADDED, 1946 DASH GAUGES WERE REBUILT AND A 6000 RPM TACHOMETER WAS MADE TO LOOK LIKE THE 1946 GAUGES, COMPLETE EZ WIRING HARNESS INSTALLED, CUSTOMIZED DASH PANEL WITH AC DUCTS AND PORTS WAS ADDED. I INSTALLED PUSHBUTTON DOOR RELEASES AND ADDED A CHROMED TILT STEERING WITH A NEW GRANT BANJO STEERING WHEEL. THE INTERIOR WAS PAINTED WITH LIZARD SKIN: ROOF WITH THERMAL PROTECTION, SIDE PANELS FLOOR AND CHASSIS WITH SOUND DEADENER. ALL INTERIOR WINDOW AND DOOR PANELS WERE STRIPPED AND REPAINTED. I HAVE ALL ORIGINAL GLASS. ALL EXTERIOR TRIM WAS RECHROMED AND WAGON WAS PROFESSIONALLY STRIPPED,PREPPED AND PAINTED. 1992 VORTEC WAS REBUILT WITH A STRONGER MID/UPPER RANGE CAM, 670 CFM AVENGER CARBURETOR,HEI DISTRIBUTOR, EDELBROCK ALUMINUM INTAKE MANIFOLD AND ELECTRIC FUEL PUMP MOUNTED NEAR THE 20 GALLON GAS TANK, LONG TUBE STAINLESS HEADERS PASS THROUGH A PAIR OF SERIES 40 FLOWMASTERS AND 2.5"-3†EXHAUST PIPES. 350 CHEVY TRANS REBUILT WITH NEW TRANSFER CASE COLLAR AND NEW LOKAR SHIFTER.
