The top was cut and shortened with a new top made out of a 1961 ford hood,this top will unbolt & come off to make this a open wheel roster ( how cool). The body was channeled over a 1988 Chevy S10 frame, new brake lines ,master cylinder booster ,brakes caliber’s ,& brake pads and shoes, and the rear differential ( Chevy 10 bolt ) has a Eaton locker pos a track, with 4/11 gears .The front grill has a 46 Chevy for the top half & the bottom half is a 51 Packard. The 1985 Camaro engine ,305 high output has a mild cam,aluminum intake,a new 600 Edelbrock carb, & a new HEI distributor . Home made exhaust manifold’s with side pipe’s .

For the love of all that is good and holy…. why???? What an odd conglomeration of things.

The stock grill, pick-up or jeep, is the best looking feature of these vehicles. Custom builds are fine, but keep the Jeep identity with something close to a stock looking grill.
I suppose if a pile of rusted parts was to be scrapped I would be OK with the rat rod idea for these. Otherwise, I it saddens my Willys heart to see it used for this kind of thing.
I agree. I see so many ugly grilles on rat rods.
THIS WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU LIVED IN — KARACHI , PAKISTAN ?? — WHAT A BEAST !!
My home owner association would NOT let me have this in our area. I would have to move.
i this still for sale??/ $8500
