First Jeep was a '46 post war Willy's project that was partially assembled.
When I finished it, I found I could hardly drive it because of my size (6'3" & 280 lbs!)... Mostly it was that the windshield frame was at the same level as my nose, so I sold it.
I had always wanted a Jeep so I was sorely disappointed.
Fast forward to 6 months ago and my wife and I found a need for a tow vehicle for our motorhome. Again because of my size, those towable econobox's were out of the question so we decided to try Jeep's again.
To my delight, I found that I fit just fine in the newer models (YJ & TJ) of JEEP. So after searching for a while we found our nice TJ!
It's my new toy now!
