    After ten years of sitting dormant collecting dust (rust?) as yard art my 1968 CJ5 :v6: is finally alive! Ahh.. I love the smell of raw fuel and exhaust fumes in the morning.

    She is my mechanic! :) (One of four...I have my own pit crew).

    The Jeep on the other hand, is looking forward to an HEI distributor, a Motorcraft 2100 swap and an OD from Herm. Its a enough to keep me busy for the next few weekends. I still have to hunt down an E-brake setup and the PTO winch that disappeared when my brother drove the Jeep last (a decade ago). Its a stand-in replacement for my 1965 Mustang that had a tree fall on it last fall. :cry:
