    I just purchased a '51 Willys Station Wagon :dance: and overall it is in good shape, it has rustout along the bottom of the fenderwells and front floors but otherwise not too bad.

    When I rebuilt my '52 Jeep I was able to get panels to replace bad spots, where might I find the same type panels in steel to repair the new addition to the family...

    Thanks in advance...

    Here's one site that might help. It's all about Jeeps, and has a well-defined list by repair item (Body and Interior) is near the bottom. One thing might lead to another.

    http://www.film.queensu.ca/CJ3B/Tech.html

    Then this one is my FAVOURITE! If it ain't here, it was never made!

    http://www.automotive-links.com/

    That one is an exercise in right-clicking because you'll spend hours going back to it from the sub-link pages!

    There's 3 link pages to Military Trucks, Jeeps, etc. then you can try the trucks sections, etc. etc. or the Sport Trucks, or...

    Hope it helps.:)
