Just stunning.
You would have to be really happy and proud of what you have achieved.
Now bring on to the Silver Streak.

Awesome, that is exactly what my thoughts were on choosing it.

Still stunned it came out as well as I dreamed, not realising I would actually achieve it!

Got the video up of getting the Truck out of the workshop and its first time in the sunshine.

Re: Grand Willys Project
Great to see you safely got the Jeep out and sparkling in the sun and the Streak in.
Looking forward to seeing you make a start on the new build, enjoy the Jeep in the meantime and again congratulations on the completion of an amazing build to an exceptionally high standard.

Re: Grand Willys Project
Scary process but it came out well in the end.
As Pete said, congratulations on a huge project completed to perfection.
I hope the two of you celebrated the first completed run.

Re: Grand Willys Project
Many thanks guys. I do wish I had easier access to my workshop, but we only have a dual-occupancy block, (original block was sub-divided before we bought it with the old house), so little I can do about it.

Re: Grand Willys Project
Given the restrictions you started with, I think you have done really well. Access may not be as good as you may wish but it works.
You have to make the best of what you have.
I'm waiting with baited breath for the Silver Streak refurb.
