My Jeep

This is a real Jeep (A Willy's)
Not like the CJs and Wranglers!!!
It was my grandfathers (new in 1962) and one of our shop trucks at our
auto body & repair shop
It was my 1st ride !
My grandfather taught my how to drive when I was about 12 years old in it, and let me plow snow in the winter at our shop from that age on!
After my grandfather passed away, I took it and gave it a complete restoration and drove it for quite a few years!
Unfortunately, as I got older, I didn't drive it very much, it sat in my garage taking up space and I gave in to a CRAZY price a doctor offered me for it ,
and I sold it
Not 1 day in my life has gone by that I have NOT regretted selling it!!!
Even though I sold it for more than 3 times what it cost brand new,
No amount of money can replace the memories and times in it with the BIGGEST influence (my grandfather) of my life!!!
