It looks really nice...more pictures of the sides?

Having that M-38 style floor panel is really a plus...my CJ-5 has a similar panel and access is greatly enhanced....in fact it's one of those night&day differences...

That sure looks nice....are these commercially available, or were they a limited batch?

The rear body sides were custom made for me. The previous project was going to be a modified flat fender trail Jeep. Now that these are being used on a "stock" looking Jeep they will need to be un-customized.  :'(
The sides are "Comp Cut" because it was going to have extra large tires and a wheel base stretch.

That sounds complicated...

The side looks a little like mine did after I cut the rust out!

I've been working on my 3B a few hours here and there.

Made a tailgate surround and patched the tailgate.



Made up some rear wheelhouse tops.





Wheel house fronts. These should be part of the top but there is just too much going on for me to make it all one piece� :D



Putting it together.

Looks great.  I wish I had a few things in your photos. 

-M38 tailgate
-Steel break

I'm sure there's more.  How about a scan around your workshop? :)

Chaos?� That's precisely how I prefer it!� It wouldn't be a true Willys workshop otherwise.
