I thought I was done
« on: January 18, 2026, 10:47:09 AM »
Hey guys, been a while. Haven't posted any pics for a long time but since I last visited these pages the Willys has gone under a complete frame off restoration including replaced panels, bigger motor, new paint (Unimog colors), new tires, body lift and others too numerous to count. Maybe now I'm done.  ;D Here's just a few shots from the beginning 15yrs ago to how she sits today.

Yes!  That's some busy work!  It looks ready to enjoy now.

I think I'm seeing for the first time (maybe you can claim inventing it) a rollbar mounted backwards!

Thanks for all the pics!

I did that to save money on canvas roof bows. Seemed logical, holds the canvas well and still serves as a roll bar. I should ask for royalties if I see it copied.  ;D

Can anyone tell me how to post full size pics and how to post more than one at a time? The initial post allowed multiple pictures but then I couldn't add more except one at a time.

When you post, there's a "+" at the bottom labeled Attachments.  When you add an attachment, under that there's in parentheses (more attachments).  It's a link to open another box to add another attachment.  Below that are the types and limits, implying per post.   

I'm assuming you did all that.

Maybe you broke the forum....

Thanks for the update, Goose! 

For anybody who isn't familiar with Goose's '63, there's a story at https://cj3b.info/Owners/Goose.html (but it doesn't include that soft top with the backwards roll bar!)

Very nice looking Jeep.
What size tires are those?
