AZ Desert,
I have been putting this off long enough, my old Cj5 is getting a new body. After I sold my first Hemi runner back in 75 I bought a two year old Cj5, it started off stock with a 6 banger and 3 spd. Over the years it evolved into a AMC401 np435 4 spd, Detroit lockers all around and developed rock rash and has been upside down and over and over and over a few times. The old body is shot, so I'm stripping this tub down and welding up all the extra holes to get it ready for paint along with the hood and fenders I picked up over the years. This one will get a backyard paint job :hack: :D

My two wheel drive sand jeep is fiberglass, but that's just to save weight. Not much of a rust problem here doesn't that take water :lol: :lol: :lol:
