Default The Return of the 1 love Winnie...

A while back , me and the crew drove the 1 Love Winnie to Colorado for a visit.

After a wild night , we awaken and the Winnie is gone!!! Filled a stolen vehicle report and kept it moving see !!! Then all of a sudden we get a call from the government talking about they found mi Winnie... And this is how they found her....



They asked if I knew about it or what was going on. So thankful they released it back to me. Follow me on my journey to get her right and running touring the roads and trails again from the new shop as well !!! Lord have mercy !!!

Default The Return of the 1 love Winnie...

Starting with the chassis, I must admit that I took a few short cuts when doing this in the beginning but being more skilled in the hobby has me wanting this time around to be right all the way through.


The chassis was J. B. Welded and hot glued to the top plate. So this time I put KNK hardware on it completely through out. Redoing as much as possible with what's on deck.

Now the next areas that need done will be done with my late night ninja workout what he can till I can start on the axles.


Till next time, I shall be wrenching as much as possible!!!

Got this big iron beast on the new work bench brain storming on exactly what to do. So I decided to test fit the chassis to the body.

The next move is to strip her down and shoot her up with the matte black paint job. May add some red , yellow and green thin pinstripes either on the side or Rally style.
Till next time...

While waiting for some parts and things to appear, I decided to sand her down some in the rough spots and prepare for a coat of primer.




Going work on the chassis for the rest of the day as well get my G Wagon back rolling too !!! Till next time........
