I live on a farm in NY and my dad has what he tells me, a 1946 Willys Jeep. He use to use it for getting around on the farm. It hasnt run in probably 20 years but maybe less then that im not quite sure. I would like to retsore this jeep. He tells me it is not worth it because it has been cannibalized and has a different engine in it and its in kinda rough condition. I still would like to restore it but have no idea of where to begin. I plan on taking pictures of it this week and posting them on here. Any feedback i could get would be great.

Hi; Its a hard call sometimes as to how far to go and how much to spend. Aftermarket parts are available, but can be pricey. Please show some good pics for serious advice.
