Willys Jeep Rescue: Frame Time!! Rust..Grease and Breaking bolts Good Times!!
What happens here
With most components removed, the frame is almost ready for final cleanup. The presenter reiterates the extensive list of parts ordered and the total cost (around $7,000 to $10,000) involved in making the Jeep right for farm use. He emphasizes the project is a labor of love, not for profit. He concludes by stating that while he planned to paint the frame today, strong winds and heavy pollen in the air prevent painting, as overspray and pollen would ruin the finish. The next step will be to continue grinding and cleaning the frame to prepare it for painting on a clear day.
Goal: Prepare the frame for painting and finalize parts list
