The Israeli bureau (Or Shahar) found this interesting project. I think this build works better than I might have expected. The builder blended the truck fenders with the front clip of the YJ rather nicely. There’s still plenty left to be done; I look forward to seeing the final product.
“Ed started with a 1991 YJ with 4” lift, 15×10 alloys and 31×11.50 Thornbirds. While using the YJ’s hood, grill, tub and inner fenders he gained access to a 1954 Willys pickup and was able to blend the old Willys front and rear fenders to the YJ body giving the Jeep that retro “flattie” look. He said “you won’t believe how well the 2 meld together. I was going to build flat fenders (myself), but after a friend of mine who has a Willys Pickup, Wagon, and a Jeepster said he had some extra fenders (that cinched it).”

You know,I actually like it! Newer running gear, better ride, more interior room…and it actually looks good!
