    Looks like you've got a good base to start with...

    just south of chicago, ya the tub is all effed up, the frame doesnt seem too bad, fenders are rough rear bumper fell apart because of the rust, but the rest seems in decent shape. also came with 4 extra rims, anyone looking for a set of rusy white rims can come grab em if they want. im in the works of getting a dana 30/44 from a 76 cj5

    Hmmmmmm might be worth the trip, my next project will be a CJ-6 but the rims that are on it now are ruined. po towed it with loose lug nuts, and destroyed the rims.

    its a 67 with the f head d18 t90 the plans are to see how rough the vehicle really is, and turn it into a putter around town. Mainly its just something fun to do over the summer for me and a buddy. Hopefully we can get her going b may or june. If it turns into too much work, then we sure will have a gigantic mess in my driveway for a while ;)

    cheers
