Bay King Chrysler in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, completed its new showroom, and the franchise really wanted to show its dedication to the Jeep brand.


As you can imagine, getting the Jeep safely down there was no easy feat. First, we had to drain all of the vehicles fluids- this vehicle could not be emptier if we tipped it upside down. We then used a local towing company to bring the vehicle into the dealership, and slowly….very slowly, lower it onto a bed of rocks and rubble within our foundation. We then placed triple-paned glass over top (similar to that used for the glass floor in the CN tower), so that this beautiful piece of machinery can be admired from directly above.

the inspiration for the Jeep installation came from a home that had a glass floor looking down into its wine cellar.

 The company already had the 1943 Willys MB to display, but it had originally planned to build a jungle gym around it for customers' kids.

 Now, the classic is literally in the floor as customers enter.
