I picked this up 3 yrs. ago from a barn north of Chico, CA

It took me 1/2 hour to get it running after the guy delivered it on a trailer.
Since then it's been in my back driveway more than it's been road, or OFF road worthy.

Will not be a DD. But I like having a truck, so why not a Jeep!!

It now belongs to my son.

That is a nice transformation of the MJ there... I'd love to find an MJ to build up one day if I can't find an FSJ to build first...
