new member from connecticut
« on: May 27, 2015, 01:07:13 PM »
Hello, not sure how to start off so I'll just start with my willys. It's a 52 willys frame. Modded by someone to run a buick v6. Wasn't hacked but there's a couple things I'd like to fix up. Cj3 body well...what's left of one. Not at all worth saving so I went and bought a md juan tub. And as I expected I'm struggling with that. Holes punched 1/2 off...you know the normal md juan woes. I'm from a small quiet CT town. I have mechanical backround, went to school for aircraft mechanics but never pushed for my lisense. I work at a wire and cable (electrical) factory. I drive a 2000 TJ Wrangler...I have plenty of technical questions. And hope to share some of my limited knowledge with you all.

Welcome Devin.
Sounds like a really cool start to a project. Are you staying with a V6?
Throw some pix up of your rig!

I'm from Granby CT, if you're ever in the area let me know.
