    I have posted here a few times asking for advice about different parts of getting my cj5 road-worthy. Here is a picture of what I have gotten done so far.
    77 cj5
    304 v8
    replaced the 4 bbland adapter plate back to 2 bbl motorcraft
    lowered chassis by going back to oem springs and shackles
    replaced all brakes and MC
    replaced all shocks
    did a lot of body work and had painted
    I am really happy with what I have tho I still have a lot more to do. This is my first reall effort at jeepdom and find it rewarding...unlike the 51 studebaker which has become a real PITA.

    Nice back to stock look.

    I may be biased.

    You need to paint the "JeeP" white to match the wheels :D

    Very nice! I love the blue and OEM look. I also am a big fan of the OEM white wheels. Well done!
