I want to get one to play with, etc..Looking for one locally that needs some work, not wanting to pay a whole lot..

Anyone have one either for sale or for fun?

 

Try Jeff's Jeeps in Clearwater. There's always one or two parked out front!

 

Get one with a chevy v8 conversion done. You'll thank me.

 

I have a 79 CJ5, not for sale but I'm definitely a fan. I have a damn closet full of parts I need to put on her. I just haven't had time to finish my restifying of her....

 

Agreed. That would be first thing done!!


If you need help, let me know. I'd love to learn more!

 

if i had the budget i would too

one of my good friends rocked a cj7 in hs, i loved riding in that bitch al lthe time

 

I just finished most of the body restoring on mine. Has a decent metallic blueISH paint job now. We finished rebuilding the 258 not too long ago, its ok for now but I need to upgraded the ignition and carb.

Next week starts the underneath, need to go through the complete brake system and replace a few things. Just ordered Poly body mounts, the stock one have formed into a nice pancake shape, hehe. Luckily it was a FL jeep originally so no frame rust, body rust, etc.

 

Very Cool.
