Pre-war cars have fallen in price and look like a steal, but the interest generally just isn’t there anymore, the people who loved them and paid a premium for them are dying off. They’ll likely stay cheap, other than the super rare, museum quality examples.
Supporting anything pre-war or even a little after is more than I care to get into.
Patching and bubble-gumming my 65 Jeep is enough. Willys did an excellent job of making their Jeeps very future unfriendly.
One of the next jobs I have slated is replacing the windshield frame and upgrading to an electric motor.
I couldn’t get the old upper hinges out of the rusted frame after a couple hours of working with them.
I’m looking at about $450 from Amazon which usually has the best deals.
Over T-day weekend I am hoping to yank the steering box and rebuild it. I finally have all of the pricey parts in.
Jeep stuff is high and there seems to be a premium for Willys.
