My Willys wheeler

Post by fristajlo »

Hi guys!
Found this in a local ad. Pretty much complete and undamaged. It's missing a scoop on the bonnet and the J2-part is broken, as usual on this chassis :( Really love the tire thread. And there is the usual dilemma. The paintwork is horrific but fixing it means I have to sacrifice the nowhere to be found decals... I think it's a great looking little car despite the paint
