WILLYNILLY (Involved in a custody battle)

Alright guys heres some pics of my build. Its been ongoing for a while. Most mods are apparent but feel free to ask questions!

Started as a stock 1951 CJ3A till I striped the R&P blew the clutch, and brake master cylinder in a trip to the mountains with 5 buddies in it.




So the mods started. Got a bit of a rust problems.






My baby boy in this pic about 4 months after I started my build. And again a few weeks ago when I picked up my 42s.

Pics in no particular order. Just showin whats been done..

ANyways tried to cut the pics down sorry for having so many, especially for you guys with dial up...

Any word on getting it back yet spence?

nope, my attourney is supposed to meet with their attouney tomorrow, and try to work it out throught the week. But he says if it goes to court that If I will put the money this guy is claiming I owe in a court controlled bond then the court will let me have my vehicle back while they deside whats what! So that was good news. Ill keep ya guys informed!

Thats some sick tube and metal work!! Good luck and I hope you get it back.

I wish we could help you get it back. It is like taking the law in your own hands if it was up to dave and i I have never looked at your build on marlin and am glad you posted here. I really like it.

LOL could only imagin the fear you two could instill!


Thanks again guys its been a fun project! Learned alot along the way, and more often the hard way.... But you guys know how that goes! Hope to get it back soon and then I will finish her up and get out to the trails!!

Good luck and keep us updated! Rig looks good!

Diet maybe or a mirror

LOL both, i dont care if I see it just as long as my special someone sees it plenty!

So I got the papers from the attourney to sighn to gointo the court today! The papers drawn up find the shop in violation of over 24 violations of the montana consumer protection act, as well as fraud, deciept, and a half dozen other violations of industry standard. I just have to determine all my damages and return it and everything will be in the courts and rollin!!!

good job bro keep us informed also man will we get to met you at mcr or we need to make a run and split the difference when you get your rig back

I doubt that I will have my rig back for a few months, then I have to finnish it, maybe I will make it out there next year! My attourney says that since he violated the fair trade and consumer protection that there is a chance that we could get tripple the damages. SO then I could afford a trip. I was told that everything could be wraped up in 6 months if the defense agrees to a judge only trial but if they want a jury trial it will be a year just to see court.

Year in court .....
Please tell us that you will have the Jeep back before that or at least outa his shop before he hurts it, has anyone you know seen it since all this crap started, is she still OK

I havent seen it since january, since the attourney took over, but I have over 200 photos of it, and wont have any problems prooving the guy did anything!! I am pretty sure she is still ok!! Today was a good day! Just trying to tally all this guy is gonna owe me. My attourney says that if its accepted as a consumer protection case that there is a good chance he will owe tripple what I go for, and even if I lost there is a 0* chance I would have to pay his attourney fees!!!

Well I hop ethis works out for ya bro and as far as tripple... well.... you may never see that, I meen look at who you are dealing with here...

Oh I will get my money, I will sit in that shop and every bad check I get I will go back after him! I will not let this guy off the hook! I dont care if I get tripple as long as I get my stuff back, the guy owns two shops so I am pretty sure hes not going to turn tail because I will get everything! Well maybe I am jumpin the gun but Im excited for the first time in a long time about this! And my attourney is pretty confident!

Bad news I may get my jeep back here soon but I wont be able to work on it till the trial is over! Supposidly its evidense and working on it would be considered tampering with evidense.... Pretty gay. Trial will most likely be in a year, and then they could appeal when they loose and it could be upto four years before I get to work on my junk again!


I am debaiting getting a backup rig for now to tide me over, there is a 1964 scout truck with a 14b rear 44 up front 36in tires... SB400... guy is asking 3500, the wife says its ok.... Then I would wheel it till I get mine back then ditch it and finnish mine up.
