Willys Jeep rescue.... wedged in a barn for 30 years...let's try and lift it out!!

What happens here

With the path mostly cleared and the tires inflated, the most challenging part of the retrieval begins: using a tractor with a front-end loader bucket to pull the Jeep out of the tight barn space. A heavy chain is attached to the front of the Jeep and hooked to the tractor's bucket. The father drives the tractor while the son guides it, lifting the front of the Jeep slightly and pulling it forward. This requires careful maneuvering to avoid hitting the barn's support posts, especially since the Jeep has no working brakes.

Goal: Carefully pull the Jeep out of the cluttered barn without damage.
