Weekend Wrenching

Flat Rod

Lately I've found time to power out on some of my languishing project Jeeps. Since getting the Juggy running and driving I've shifted things around in the garage so that I can focus more of my attention on the Sloppy Seconds Flat Rod.


 Over the weekend I nearly completed the fuel system, built a radiator mount, installed the radiator, spent 2 or more hours searching for radiator hoses at the local parts store (I know a great one in Santa Clarita CA., by the way if you need odd-ball hard to find parts), chopped 8.5 inches out of my Willys truck seats, built a battery mount and installed the battery in it's hidden location and at least figured out how I was gonna mount the steering box. It's coming together nicely now. It should be running soon. Then I'll build a windshield frame.
