I really like your "never say die" attitude on these jeeps! I have a close friend who lives in Woodbridge,Ontario.

I never thought about looking for a junker ole MJ to build up... If
I could score one for 50 Id buggy it like crazy NOTHING to lose and you will definitely make your 50 bucks back ... basically get some old school d60s on it lift it really nice and toss in some 38's and sell it for 4 grand

Nothing ever seems to go as originally planned.

Keep up the restore and post when you can. It is a good story. Pics are really nice, too.

Lots of work on that one. Most people wouldn't even touch it. Good so far.

This may scare you but this one is in ten times better shape then the 93 2 Door started out.

Wow... the sad thing is I was like who cares about his smoking habit... but still was watching intently to see if the lighter would actually pop back out... LOL... I hope you are able to stop smoking... I know the stresses of the issues don't help any.....

I love 'waking the dead'.........stick with it! Great progress!

Just re-listened to that Renix startup. Great motors and quite simple and straightforward. I love them, can you tell.

Not too highjack but treads like this make me think about fixing this thing instead of just parting it. 87 Chief, black interior, 4.0, 4x4, 90k original miles.



Thank you for the inspiration!!!! I will be watching
