While this is not a story about jeeping, it is a story about my son who buys a car for $500 off Craigslist and enters the World Rally Championship in Mexico.

Re: An awesome story.
To put it bluntly, That's fawking awesome! 
Not a Jeep story, but most certainly Jeep spirit. $500 > $400,000
I almost feel bad for those WRC sucka's......almost. Very well done!

Truely awesome, kinda reminds me of Lucas Murphy and his '10 King of the Hammers story.
I am the foremost authority on my opinion.

Re: An awesome story.
And did you read the related story from Bill's co-driver, Ben Slocum? He is blind in one eye and thus has no depth perception. And this was their first race together.
