    I knew recognized that shop. I rode my motorcycle from Wa for Sturgis a few years ago, and that shop was the only one in town to pick up the oil I needed. All the way in the back on the bottom shelf, and the garage up the road was nice enough to loan me a few tools to DIY it and be on my way.
    Amazing people, everyone up there. Thanks!

    Nothing like getting it running before the sun sets. And umm, "Because there's nothing hot to burn it on" was the best line with a fast comeback I've heard in a while. Good job Matt!

    Those Old Willys Jeep are Tanks..I had a 1957 Willys Pickup. With a Super Hurricane Flathead 6 in it. Loved that jeep. I kick myself in the ass for ever getting rid of it..UGH...Young and Dumb. LOL..It would go any wheres. I used it to drag Logs out of the woods with no trails to cut up for firewood..Loved it..It would just crawl around like nothing..Amazing vehicles for sure..Great find Bud..and Video.

    With my limited vocabulary I can’t begin to express how much I’d love to see more of the 2A! This was a fun little video..like VGG for off roaders. Something eles that makes me laugh is the attraction between big dudes and the smallest of rigs..you looked like a big ole kid standing next to that tiny Jeep .

    What an awesome find. Love the old Jeeps. I was an Army mechanic and simply loved them. What is cool about them for out in the field working on them. There is never a shortage of smokers in the Army. The spark plugs and points gap. You can use a match book cover as a gauge or even the box lid off of a pack of smokes to set them. That is not perfect. But will get you out of a trouble spot and moving.

    Make the most of your time with your Dad….I miss my wrangler owning days but I miss my Dad alot more! It’s scary how quickly things can change so great to see anyone appreciating time with their Parents 🤗
    Anyhoo, for my sins, I love Jeeps, had a couple of tj’s, a yj (that I lifted and modded myself but unfortunately had to sell for reasons out of my control at the time 😭) But still drive an old diesel kJ now which I have grown to love…despite all its flaws…must just be a Jeep thing!

    Count me as another person who wants to see the Jeep given a driver-quality restoration. Make it nice again and use it for cruising around on nice days. Not every old Jeep needs a V8 and 40" Super Swampers. They're not making any more CJ-2as.

    Over from Matt's channel. We've been up to "The Hills" probably ten times from next door in Nebraska. We stay at the Rocket there in Custer or camp down the road at Stockade in Custer State Park. And, ironically, I've been to that S&B auto parts store. A few years ago, we came up for the Buffalo Roundup and it snowed - IN SEPTEMBER! I found out quickly that I needed wiper blades! Doh. Will be up there later this year and look forward to the story of this Jeep.
