Hey everybody, my name is Chris and I am restoring a 1959 Willys wagon. I currently have the body on a rotisserie that I built and I have replaced the entire rear floor, x member and am working on hanging new quarter panels. I will be putting the drivetrain from my 84 Chevy into the wagon. I have some questions on how to finish the floor where I cut it, but I will ask them in another section. I have to say this is a very unique message board, lots of cool rides here.
Wow that sounds like quite the project, a car barbecue. Yep we're a weird and whacky bunch, glad to have you join up.

Thanks guys, my wife bought this wagon for me as a xmas gift. I initially thought it was in pretty good shape but the more I tore into it the worse it got, then lo and behold it was off the frame and the resto began. I'm hoping to have it roadworthy for next summer.....I made the new bed floor from a 2002 Chevy long box.
and what a cool project I'm from Canada also, I know it's a pritty small place so I should know you but WHERE are you from
I figured north some where because of your coat rack colection (antlers) hanging in the shop. Been up that way a few times in my younger years, beautiful country
ahhh....beautiful GP. ....never been there... but your the 3rd guy from GP that ive met less than a week so?...is the Willy gonna be close to the ground ??(low)?? cuz they sure look slick hammered to the funny farm and the BC coast
No, it won't be slammed down, it will be big and nasty.....it is a 4x4 after all. Now I said that everyone will be hatin........ I agree they look good low but that just wouldn't work around here.
