| "Bone Stock" 1993 YJ Wrangler Project Check the "YJ Page" to see the transformation of this bone stock Jeep with 200,000+ miles from a daily driver to an entry level trail rig!

| Did you know? chasm: pronounced (kaz' m), is defined as a deep crack in the earth's surface, an abyss, or gorge. (Sort of like the place your money goes when you restore or modify a Jeep!) |

| The JeepChasm is our little piece of the world wide web! In these pages we share some of the story and photos of our 1951 Willys Overland CJ3A Universal Jeep restoration. We will also share photos of other Jeep projects, Jeep related activities, and maybe even a little bit of Jeep history! |
| We hope this site will serve as a resource and an inspiration to others who are interested in vintage Jeeps and in Jeep restoration. We will post and update links to various Jeep restoration resources on and off of the Internet. We will let you know where and how we found our parts, and the obstacles and challenges we had to overcome. Contact us if you would like to add a link to your Jeep related site! |
