Who would built the best jeep in the time allowed...
I bet Jessy would have some zoomys on his...
I'll give Willy worthy 10 bucks to fight him....

*** we would for sure.  He's an incredible fabricator but he just aint into the off road thing. The closest he comes to dirt sports is breaking his Trophy Truck every few miles.  And what's wrong with zoomies?

I think Willy would just pull a gun and it'd be over pretty quick.  He's got old guy experience - work smarter, not harder ya know?

Definately, we would.  We've all been doing this for longer than we can remember... sure, Christian started with cars, but he saw the light really soon, and that background makes for some awesome engine builds.  Cappa looooves the transmissions and axles, and if he hasn't tried a screwy combination, he's not far off.  And me, if there is wiring or computers involved, I can usually make it go.  Yeah, we've got all the bases covered if it ever came to building a Jeep like that.

Really, though, we'd be better suited to junkyard wars than we would be monster garage... But I'm betting we could build a 30,000 dollar plus "freebie" rock crawler as good, if not better than, the next guy.

dont forget the bronco rock crawler they built, then thrashed trying to roll it, that one might have actually been a good rig. I want in on the junkyard war.  
These tires were made for muddin and they're gonna throw mud all over you.

Even though I love the work Jesse puts into projects and his sense of style hands down the JP guys would build a much better Jeep. If it was a bike build off then its a much different story but a Jeep build.
  Junkyard wars is a show I just recently started watching and its funny how they slap something together in ten hours and it actually works.

A few years ago, I actually sent in a submission for junkyard wars.

I missed the deadline by like a day... Doh!  Took us too long to get our entrance video together.

Well if team JP was coming up short I bet there would be some pranks/sabotage going on. That would make the show worth it right there.

I donno, we might finish the TV project but we'd end up killing eachother. Pete would want to add way too much electrical crap, Christian would want it to go dangerously fast, and I'd want it to be unbreakable (heavy) and be able to shoot. One of us would end up dead. Might be a cool idea for a project Jeep though. Have each one of us do a different part of the build without letting the others know that you are doing. What a nightmare!

A nightmare that would make for a great build article. I say do it

I still think this is a good story idea. Make two JP teams and have a build off. BUMP
