    That stinger was the only thing I didn't like about your build. ;) Awesome work!

    Dude, I saw you out here in Moab Friday night. Jeep/Ram truck head of design, Mark Allen and I were tooling around in that completely stock maroon/tan '49 Willys Wagon and passed by you just as you were pulling out of your parking spot 'bout an hour before it got dark. We turned around but you were already gone.

    The Willys did really well. Need to shim the front axle to reduce tearing up Ujoint U-Bolts at the front Yoke
