Sometimes you see a video that just makes your jaw drop
« on: January 14, 2011, 02:04:12 PM »
Driving up a Willys' Jeep, taking it to pieces, putting it all back together, and driving it away, all in about 4 minutes...



Anything else catch your attentiion people...? Inspirational videos please, nothing just for shock value... (oh, okay... as long as its in reasonably good taste...) ;D

 Ah the venerable Willy's ! Watching that vid makes me think they modded the vehicle for quick dis-assembly. Impressive none the less.

No fender liners, no glass, I think I counted only two lug nuts on each wheel, probably no more than one bolt per side holding on the axles to the springs..and that's just what I can see and guess.

Yes, that was heavily stripped and modified for disassembly.  I'll bet you couldn't pay anyone enough to try and drive it at 60 MPH - probably fall apart and kill you.

BUT - still impressive and amusing!

Oh Hell, that's nothin'. I used to know a buch of guys in Detroit who could dismantle a Cadillac in half that time ;D. However, reassembly was not part of their program ;).
