Hi Mike.  
Welcome to the party.  Saw that you posted in the "Willys on Day One" thread.  Gonna head over there now and check out your Willys.

Great to have you join in the fun.  Can you say  'Addiction'? ;)

Hey Mike,

I'm in Bedford, TX working on restoration of my 49 - 3A. Been about 1 1/2 years on it now. I gave up some garage space for this job but it shares with my 53 - Willys Wagon. If the idea is just to get it running and drive around get a good power washer (rental from Home Depot) get the 3600 PSI version so you gan knock off all the crud. To cut the grease get some greased lightning from Walmart spray it down and let it sit a while then hit it with the power washer. After you are done then you can use the washer to do your driveway and anything else that needs blasting.

Good luck,

George

Mike,

I'd like to find out more about your '49 3A! What is her serial number?

Thanks,
Bob W
