My compliments to you as a parent. Teaching your son self-sufficiency along with the skill sets that he has shown is outstanding. What a wonderful memory he will take with him into adulthood!

Video like this I like. No clickbait, no cheezy music, no misleading. Simple and fun to watch

Outstanding! I rebuilt mine back in 75 when I was about your age. You put me to shame. Well Done

finally a youtube poster with no damn music wrecking their video THANK YOU !!!

My uncle J. A.ROMERO ,who just passed away two weeks ago drove one of these in the korean WAR(not conflict).thanks for the timely tribute.God Bless. on behalf of the Romero family.t. breneiser,nephew

Most of the people don`t realise how much work it takes to restore a car. If you a not a professional, it takes 5 to 10 times longer. You`ve tried very hard to do it, so much so, even your little dog wanted to help you. Keep on learning & evolving, kid. Some day you will have your own garage, restoring precious jewels from the past. I don`t want to guess about you, kid, but, your Jeep, will survive WWIII. For sure. Congrats!

had a mb when I was 17 an restored it some . im 62 now brought back a lot if good times thanks

What a neat toy!

That was the most memorizing video I've ever watched! Well done as a backyard mechanic who's restored a 1956 series 1 and a 1965 series 2A Land Rover I appreciate the work you've done! I hope to have room again one day to restore an old Willys to The Desert Rats configuration complete with sand ladders and expansion tank bolted to the front grill! Who knows maybe even the machine gun mounted in the back :-) unfortunately war-era Willy's are pretty rare up here in Canada Land Rovers a little bit more common because we use them in the Forestry Department!

Young man i just wanna give you a award you did awesome with the restoration of it only if more younger people were like you❤

if only more younger people were like you. great job. : )

It's very inspiring to watch you young fellows get these old Jeeps running again. Who says all young people want to do is play video games. Great Job!!!

Thumbs up for youngsters taking up these tasks , seen pretty rarely these days !!!

You are the first people in history to get a Willys stuck in the mud multiple times. Yet each time your driving improved an so did your confidence.

Great job. I'm glad you still "drive it like you stole it". Those jeeps weren't made to be babied. What an improvement a grille swap makes. :)

It's fantastic to see you use the jeep as it was meant to be used and not as a "showpiece" that just sits there. AWESOME JOB!!

I watched the full video and I think this is the most inspiring thing in the Utube community given your age, skills and focus by taking the time to film every step of the project ( mostly) I can only say that your hard work and passion resulted in a great piece of restoration. If that Willy could talk it wound be screaming " Hurrah "

Finally someone put together a video where I didn't have to fast forward to the good parts. Every shot was a good part! Nice job man!. :)

Excellent restoration, the jeep was beautiful, for sure you will not have fun as before, wherever you went anywhere, but the service was worth it, and whoever did not like it is because they never had a jeep, and jeep is like that, it is to use and like it, it's a car that you never forget, big hug.

Only one words...awesome...I am also restoring my Toyota FJ-40 my self, not quite done yet...you are inspiring so much to keep doing my FJ. Hopefully, she will comes out nice like your Willys...Great Job

It is a jewel and an asset you can keep for the rest of your life, very well done.

Loved the puppy playing with the blue shop towel. Puppies are the best!

It was a pure pleasure to watch the video from start to end. Especially so without any music! Very well done.

Wow, there is nothing better than an old Willys Jeep. Great work on this tremendous Jeep.

Young man...you did one hell of a job...congratz on giving new life to the old girl. One thing I have always wanted is an old Willys Jeep...I guess it's just not meant to be...no $$$ and now medically retired...lol I hope you have a great day & be safe.

Nice restoration! I was never a jeep fan until i seen a group of stock jeep willys go thru the rubicon trail.These vintage jeep willys are a true rock crawling 4x4 and i cant wait get one.

That's just an awesome job on both the transformation of this Jeep and the video progress of it. Outstanding job! You should be very proud.

Nice to see a jeep that is restored amazingly actually being used!!!!

G'day. that was awesome mate. I'm guessing i'm at least twice your age, almost 3 time's maybe. You've just inspired me to break down my 1978 G 60 Patrol and do a proper restoration job on her. Good on ya. You will go far in life with the attitude you have, Your old man must be dam proud, he did an awesome job raising ya to be the man that u are. :)

you say it inefficient,it is elegant. you're genius of your kind.

Absolutely loved this video. Seeing your restoration was worth the time to watch. Great job.👍👍👍👍

Truly outstanding job... Your crew are all about what American boys should be doing!

Thank you for shareing this video with us, I really enjoyed watching it.

Glad you didn't add music. Loved your paint booth. Great job.

Nice job well done! My brother has a 1942 model, we both went in it to Normandy last June for the 75th D-Day anniversary! Fantastic vehicle.......

I can only say: GREAT JOB!!!! Congrat from Hungary!!!

Beautiful job! Thanks for keeping a part of history alive.

A lot of love and pride in that build! Good on you young man!

great research on decal specs, great looking Willys. Thanks for the build and sharing this video.

I wish all time lapsers who doesn't use remixed crap in their videos, a very pleasant evening.

Really like these old jeeps .. good job on the work you put in and excellent that you aren't afraid to use it ... Nicely done .

Great job, another piece of history saved and looking good.

Amazing job and love that you still use it like it was intended to be used! Love the video great job!

Great job had one in the sixties, much more fun than the new models. Thank you for bring it back to life.

WOW you have built some thing on my bucket list. I would get one of these before I got any other car or truck. You are very lucky and your hard work paid off in spades.

this was a great video I enjoy it very much, it looks like you really have fun with it. thanks for the video.

Wanted one since childhood. Nice resto job..Top marks.

Love it man, great job. That Jeep is just too cool. Congratulations on a job well done.

That's a very detailed time lapse! You video had made me search for a Willys Jeep myself!

I ENJOYED that! Hell....it even made the Jeep happy! Great job!

Wow, drop dead gorgeous! Amazing job!

Very well done all around! Hats off to you. Hope you have it to enjoy for many years.

all that work and back in the woods...Good to see other young people into flatties.

bro that Willy's is super cool. great​ paint job. I think your restoration is on point. good job

A piece of History Is back ... good Job and take care of it ... 💪🏽🤙🏽

I think you did a great job Don’t listen to the haters And keep the JEEP love going Your Jeep looks perfect

really appreciate your work. This is really how it is restored. On TV we see people who take a Ford 32 cut it up and put a new 650-inch engine on it. It's not like that. I like to see it as fresh from the factory. Good job.

I really enjoyed this video and watching the transformation. keep up the great videos!

this was beautifully-made. the video was kind of asmr lol i really loved the color and the exhaust note its dope.

A wonderful transformation!

My gawd that's beautiful! Strong work you guys!

Nice job , loved the video and I think it's really great that your still having fun with it off road .

Great job. Its beautiful!

Drive it like u stole it ! such a great passion , it's really a jeep thing

Hey dude, fantastic job! After owning 12 Jeeps of all sorts, I finally got my hands on one of my dream rigs- a 47 cj2a. I too am going to have to do a full tear down, but your video is quite inspiring. For a young guy, you did an amazing job, seriously. But more to the point; thank you, for still after all that hard work, taking it out, and wheeling it, and HAVING FUN! Too often these rigs are restored, and kept on a plinth. Its great to see someone enjoying the fruits of their labor from the drivers seat, and not a lawn chair staring at it in a car show somewhere. Props.

I know this was some time ago but only just appeared on my search etc. But had to say what a fantastic achievement, full credit to you, it's just awesome - well done, hope it still lives on! 👍

Very Nice!!! You did a great job. I would love to have one of those parked next to my TJ. Maybe I should add it to my bucket list! You should be proud of yourself.

Awesome Jeep. Great project. I was driving an M38A1 in high school. Not as nice as yours, but they all are fun.

Awesome job, God bless your hands.

The young man handling all the work! U da man!

Now that’s what a jeep should look like

happy to see your work.last year i also repainted my jeep by a paint shop in india.but now i feel that doing self paint is attach you with your project.thanks

I have to admit I watch the whole video, and was very entertained. You did a great job on the WWII Willies Jeep. I tip my hat to sir. Great job, even though you threw it into the mud again. LOL

Felicitaciones para esta gente que dió vida nuevamente a estos hermoso vehículos. Muy buen trabajo.

Wow! Mind boggling restoration plus performance. If General Patton is alive, he will give you one of his stars. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Nice job young man. I'm jealous, always wanted an old Jeep like the one you have. Enjoy it.

NNNNICE JOB MAN!!!!! Took me back to when I was working on mine!

absolutely awesome congrats for this accomplishment

Amazing job. Thank you for sharing.

I love the shovel and the ax mounted on the side. nice touch

The disc brake would help the willeys jeep brake, a big plus. great job.😆 Well done, mate. You have a lot of good friends to help you out at different points of project.

Wow.....👏👏👏. What nice Restoration Buddy. You have done a Tremendous Job 👌🙂. Keep it up🙂🙂. A very BIG Thumbs up 👍👍👍, And Good wishes from NORWAY 🇳🇴🇳🇴.

Love to see our young folks with such great talents!!! Just hoping our '66 cj5 restoration goes as well.

While in R.E.M.E. in Hong Kong 1955 Repaired lots of them. We did have a few Land Rovers but preferred the Jeep. Great fun to drive.

NICE tear down build and best of all drive !

Made in America, just like you buddy. 🇺🇸👍🏻 Good work

very nice job. Thanks for sharing

Very nice job. Thanks for sharing.

very cool, congratulations, lots of work...love the stencils...

Awesome job and great video!! Thanks, Jon

One of the best parts about this is that not only does it look great, but its been driven how it was meant to be driven. Not locked up in some garage.

Ficou divinamente mimoso, gratificante ver o video sem nenhuma musica alta....parabéns, from Brazil......

Really beautiful finish

Amazing restoration!

you did a great job. Love it. I'd make it my daily driver

Beautiful Jeep good job a lot of memories to American people
