Hi F Bill,

Thank you.
Those photo was taken in 2010, The jeep body was restored and painted in early 2010 (that's why you see it quite good ). Current homework is to check all the parts in front wheel, fixing the brake ( this has been a headache to me since I tried so many times ), fixing all leaking oil from the engine and gearbox.
Didn't get the time to do all those thing right now...

Hi All,

My name is Julio and I'm from Indonesia. I own willys "CJ3A" 1949 on restoration ( actually is on and off restoration work due to limited budget ). My father injected with this "virus" since I was a kid when I started to learn driving a car.
He actually give me his jeep when I'm in college ( well it was in pieces ). I spare my time try to restore my Jeep, starting with building the machine and gearbox and it takes almost one year. After it runs then I used the Jeep for nearly 2.5 years with limited condition ( as long as the Jeep rolling then I'm fine with it, don't mention about the look though �;) ).
After I graduated from university I was moved to another city for work so it was pushed to leave the Jeep behind with nobody to took care of the Jeep �:-[. The story continue with me getting married, got a kid etc....so the Jeep more of forgotten by me as I need to take care my family first.
But deep down in my mind, I always want to restore and used the Jeep as daily use then I can proud to be the one who preserved one of the Iconic car in the world.
