Here is my Jeep, about 5 years to restore. Did some updating, still having carburetor issues but is drive-able.
"It's done" Did you type that with a straight face? Looks good. Motivates me to get back to the scout..
Nice!!! That sure brings back some memories. I've had a bunch of CJ-5s back in the 70s-early 80s. They were a lot of fun. The most fun was the `78 that I put a 400 SBC/TH350 with Trans-adapt adaptor for the transfer case in. It was my everyday vehicle but I got into racing it in the sand drags on the weekends. Bolt on the paddle tires and go. Lots of fun. Took it to the dragstrip once and ran a 13.07@102mph. Best memory was beating my buddy's `69 427/390hp Corvette with it. He had no idea what was about to happen to him that night. The look on his face after his ass whoopin' was priceless
