got this guy fired today...
little fresh gas and a new gas line.. the motor roared to life...
swapped a new set of 31's on original slotted mags and took her out for a spin with no brakes...
its amazing.. the jeep hauls major ass... I was actually surprised how much bottom end torque the little 304 has...
the Tcase is still stuck in 4WD so sliding around the parking lot today was fun in the slush..
Jeep might be a little worse than first expected... the mint condition of the top gives the eye a false sense of cleanliness.
Frame is tweeked in the back and has some major rust scale all over..
calling the wires a rats nest would be kind..
the body is questionable... might be able to work with it.. i have a line on NOS CJ6 sheet metal.
top is mint with the exception of the back door... but im still researching that.. seems it was a rare option to have a "vertical rear door"
want to get the jeep at least able to start, stop and at best a new Y pipe and muffler.. (starter is sticking)
