900 Miles to Moab

Over at the Autopian, founder and chief editor David Tracy had been periodically updating the site with progress on his latest crazy idea: building a new WW2 Jeep from parts sourced strictly through eBay. He’d gone dark for the last couple of months, but reading his July 4th article wrapping up the entire project, it’s clear why: he was working nonstop to get it done by the deadline, so he could drive it 900 miles to Moab for the Jeep Roundup. It’s a great story for anyone interested in foolish ideas, old Jeeps, or road-trip adventures.
