Got to love the Philippine parking brake ( rock under the drivers side front tire ) @ 4:34 😀 I am presently living in the Philippines and having a custom Jeep Rod being built by one of the Jeep builders in Cavite.
Check " the jeep doctor " youtube channel. He has a vlog on a customized jeepney in cavite. Some of engine they put is toyota 4age. We also called that owner type jeep(otj) and tamiya.
@@huntergerald3185 I follow the Jeep Doctors videos and have him as a friend in my messanger account. The jeep in this video over here in the Philippines is more what would be called a Old Style Tikya because of it's longer rear overhang but still short wheelbase of 85" - 90" There is now a Tikya Rebel that runs a very short rear overhang and slightly shorter over all wheelbase of 80" - 85" The Tikya Rebels are being built in San Leonardo Nueva Ejica by Benji Tabil or John Arnold Peña mostly. The Old Style Tikyas were pioneered by Resty Tiquia who is now retired and no longer building them. Tamiyas are similar but normally run a longer wheelbase of 100" or slightly more and a more powerfull 4age or 20 valve 4age Blacktop engine. They are built in Cavite by a few different builders with Edward Ignatio Oliverez being the most famous. I am presently working with the crew of Edgardo Suansing also of Cavite on building a first of it's kind in the Philippines Jeep Roadster, it is based on a Tikya Rebel style but on a longer Tamiya wheelbase of 100" because of the big rear tires. I plan to have Jeep Doctor do a video of it soon which will be on You Tube. He also has done a video of a interesting Blue Jeep Rod out of a shop up by Manila in Tondo.
That guy is not only an epic mechanic he is a gifted artist you no he docent resent americans after the war he lives here and he is building the coolest willysfor the road congrats what a beautiful creation
@@robertaswenson1192 I don't wanted to sound prick as you mention above, 2nd America is NOT A country. 3rd You're a PRICK by start calling names when not need to!, It makes allot since now knowledge you have from these point. I wont blame you.... Typical USA behavior
being a Filipino, im happy to see this video and i am proud to showcase the build because the builder is bringing a part of our culture to another country. saludo ako sa iyo sir!❤️
Wow you just finalized my plans for my '43Willis ! All I can say is that you have it all , COOL,BAD ASS,AND IT WAS BUILT FROM an oil stain and rust . I love it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🇵🇭 hats off to sir Joel (jeep owner) for showing off Filipino craftsmanship not only in the US but in the world as well. Thanks again Larry for featuring. Salamat! Mabuhay! 👍
Cool build.... I've always wanted to lower and build a old Jeep.... already done a lifted trail dedicated one.... Handled itself really good from from a red light and in curves...
Nah, its best to keep it this formula, cause the standard channel is all scheduled and rules. On the bonus channel, it's all random uploads and content. I love it when they drop 3 vids a day sometimes.
I wish I had a jeep but I don't think I could ever bring myself to drop it. When I think of Jeeps I think 4X4s Off road badasses. Never low rider type stuff but this one is a one of a kind.
at present time in the philippines they dont mod willys jeeps....they build a lot of jeeps similar to that from scratch using mostly japanese surplus parts...and they are cheap.....about $3000....but mostly are 1600cc or less stock engines
The last time I went to p.i. my grandmother neighbor had one but there's was hand made but the best thing I road is a koliglig ( or how ever you spell it)
When i first saw a video before this, i said the builder must be pinoy. All of my buddies back home, this is what they have. Cheap and easy to build, same stance like his. 🤘👊
You can put any engine in an "owner type jeepney". Craziest one I've seen in the Philippines has a modified B16B. 250 HP in a car weighing less than 600 kg / 1200 pounds. I've seen ones with 4AGE, SR20 N/A engines in them. But the most common are the Toyota K engines.
very, very cool.......with this, snart cart, mcFarland's beast, MCM's subarute, etc., new go-car ideas pop into mind from each new build I see.....this little genius build proves (obviously, with some skills) you can do it yourself, in your garage, and still achieve awesomeness
welp.. I have one sitting on my garage getting rusty and old. I don't know anything about modifying or tuning, upgrading a car.. then this video got into my recommendations
Von Hassen i’ll be your guide! We got everything from Japanese Imports, Italian Stallions, American Muscle, German Runners, all the way to our Philippine Exclusive Jeepneys!
I would love to pick at his brain about the build. For instance ask why he opted to use 1st gen camaro subframe for ifs, and how he integrated it, vs why not use the ohhh so easy Vicky front modular ifs to the stock willys frame. And much more. Builds like this, intrigue me so much. The culture, the inspiration the pure fun it must be to drive it! By the way, was that red v6 camaro blowing up after that sorry excuse of a show off- one tire fire? Like come on! The people need answers fellas!
@minterfab Yeah, I heard wrong. Not sure how i mixed It up, then again, i watch these during insomnia induced moments. Lol It is a mg2 front swap. Though the Vicky would work as well. Juust cause it may be too wide, doesn't mean it can't be narrowed. Though the mg2 kit is way easier to fab to fit when too wide or narrow.
@minterfab Don't lie! The Vicky swap is for cheap bastards that don't want to pay for the mg2 swap! Haha hahaha haha! But honestly, for half the price of ther mg2 kits, the Vicky swap is really a decent bang for the buck. It just doesn't have that aftermarket backing like the mg2, then again, if it did, it may not be so inexpensive anymore.
Filipinos, in general, would just use any available parts that they have. Or at least anything free that they can have. You know, If-it-fits-it-might-work-kinda-thing.
Our family has one owner-type jeep with a starlet 4k engine, my father replicated the newer jeeps by fabricating his own fiberglass fenders, bumpers (front is currently WIP but the rear is completed) it also has te37 reps
It does need more of a anti roll cage. Your jeep is awesome. We have 13 of those old military jeeps in our collection 7 are still in the crates. The rest are in various running conditions. We never thought or doing this.
"Pogi Points" sticker on the front mirror. That owner type jeep hybrid project does look nice to emulate. Looks simple and nice to drive with a fine horse power under the hood.
