Lol. The bumper was welded onto the frame with some of the tightest, most comprehensive welds I've ever seen, so it's still there. The Siderwinder winch wasn't so lucky- 6 3/4" grade 8 bolts yeilded up the winch and a cool custom mounting bracket that bolted to the welded winch bumper.DarkMonohue wrote:You are very welcome, but it's hard not to ask, "hey, you wanna sell that?" when you post things like that winch/bumper combo.

That was a sweet bumper. I just took the winch. Which I ended up selling to a forum member for cost.HowardT64 wrote:66stepside wrote:No wonder I cannot wrap up any projects this summer... I pulled this off a junk yard waggie today...
I would LOVE to have a bumper like this!!!
It's a labor of love, not of necessity, so that must explain a lot! Lol. Thanks, though.DarkMonohue wrote:66stepside wrote:...the 8' Thriftside bed...
Added to my "do want, do not need" list.
That new trailer looks great! You make it look like an easy process.
Yeah, it's all going back together... Here's a quick n dirty mock up pic, or two:mud89 wrote:Nice..,are you going to put back the rear fenders on the box ?
By the way i am looking for willys rear fenders like these ones..
I think it should be universal fitting on the fenders as the beds went basically unchanged from 48-72 +/- a year, or two.mud89 wrote:Thanks for the tip, i'll look to the willys America option, assuming that the size of the Willys America'" fenders is not very different from the size of the Gladiator ones. I am looking also for skirts but the shape seems simple and i guess it won't be very difficult to make them by a local if i don't find any
It's going slow, that's where it's going! Lol.wvrefugee wrote:I like where this is going.....hooptie!
