Hello from Washington's Olympic Peninsula! I am currently getting my 1st Jeep roadworthy.It is a 1947 CJ2A, Ser.# 102471. Engine # is 48989.It has an F script Ford GPW head  on unkown engine block (Havent gotten the motor cleaned off yet.......) The body was re paneled from the fenders/firewall back in 1/8" steel plate. This was done back in the 1960's in Arkansas. Practically the entire tub was done in 1/8" steel. Not a bad looking job, either! Right now I am rebuilding the brakes and installing new axle bearings/seals/gasketts, New brake lines, fuel line,master cyl,shocks,fuel pump, re build the WO carb.
Not doing a frame off, but replaceing the necessary items to make it a safe fun little car again. Soon I will be useing electric shears to remove what is left of the original tub from underneath the heavy steel body. The frame is solid and will get wire brushed and coated with extend ruft converter and primed undercoated. i intend to bedliner the entire interior and then drive drive drive. Happy to see this new forum and hold high hopes of gaining more and more knowledge  from the other members of this forum.

	Looks like you're going to have to use a hosting service such as www.imageshack.us Pretty simple to use, if you need help please feel free to PM me. I see that that photo link automatically adds http:// to the begining of the photo, images shack does that for you so you will need to edit that off thier link. Doug

	MOre than likely they have software to block linking to it, some call it bandwidth theft when you direct link to thier site, slows down use of thier site at the benefit of another site(this one). Try using imageshack once, when you get the hang of it, it is pretty simple.

	Hi N8Gunner Change this part of your link when you try to insert it. postid= 1282861 to postid=1282861 I think that space in the last part of the link is the problem. Give it a try. Russ

	I tried it for him, it doesn't work...darn. Pretty sure it is because that site doesn't allow direct linking to photos.
