More disassembly and getting a list together of parts that will be needed later. At this point, I had purchased several military Technical Manuals and Parts Manuals to help with the project. The military is great at creating detailed manuals with plenty of pictures and drawings. You just need to learn to read the "military way".

For example, in one of the manuals you want to look up the part number for the bracket that supports the generator. You go to the index and look for; Brackets, End, generator in section 0601.1 where you will find the original Willys-Overland part number, WO-118835. Confusing at first, but once you fumble around the books, it starts to make sense.

Here are some more photos of the Jeep as it came apart. Oh, the yellow paint came from Mr. Favro, the former owner, who worked for Catipillar in Phoenix, so he used the same yellow paint you might see on a bulldozer.
