    Great views! It remembers me the military when I was responsible for the postal service for 3 weeks and was given a jeep as main vehicle! 3 things, apart the pleasure and the cold are still in my memory : 1= my legs are too long for it (NO adjustment, knees hurting in front on bad terrain), 2=NO breaks unless you stand on the pedal, and our roads are stiff (happy you could stop before the Range Rover in the video ) and 3= I was always looking for jerrycans of fuel, because I had no radio and no phone (in the 1980's...) to call mama like nowadays... But it is the perfect vehicle in the beautiful summer days if you like to do everything in mecanics like you! Thank you again for sharing !

    Morning Bruce, I always find the stuff on the Jeep interesting, even though I don't have one! 😆👍

      Hi Mel, it is the simple practical mechanics of them perhaps?, nothing extra but everything it has is though out in design 😁👍

    Another great and informative video!
    I played with my carb air/fuel mix recently as the exhaust stunk of fuel. Needed as much as a half turn in to for a better mix. Running much better and with less fuel!
    Handy spanner tip - I'd not thought of that.

      @@hairysmurf8537 the tip on the FARG video of putting your hand on the air filter and if the revs rise meaning the mixture is too lean is a great tip when setting them up! 😁👍

    One has to love the simplicity of that machine. Much like the Meteor. 😉🥃

      Hi Lance i love the simplicity, as i do with my Classic 350, while the J series are modern compared to pre unit Enfields they are in todays super hi tech world real basic! 😁👍🥃

    Bruce, that is a very nice vehicle! Great to see a classic being preserved. By the way, it does require non detergent oil since filtration is partial and not full filtration like modern engines.

      Love this Jeep, a life long dream to own one and to discover it is one of the last 5 known Willys MBs manufactured (by Hotchkiss of France) is an amazing and rare thing!
