Fed Ex found the Corbeau brackets for the seats! They were only missing for an extra a day, so not too bad. Quick install. Even with drilling new mounting holes for the Masterafts, only took about an hour and fifteen to get them in.

New stuff Got a tach that will go in later with the new steering column, Painless wiring, other new gauges etc. Got the new seats in. Used Corbeau brackets which work well and drop the seats about two inches. Just had to re-drill new holes because the Mastercraft seats are wider where they...

Really gives you a good idea how much more the windshield leans back in this one. I wonder if it will result in less broken glass out here in the land of stone chips. Much more aerodynamic.

Not very far Mine is now in the rebuild stage.. probably will be for a while. So, it is only taking me out to the garage this week. I can say, it is nice to escape there on occasion.

Just a half ton with a Hemi. Fortunately, I just have a little CJ5 now. I don't know how well the Ram would have done with the JK, but it pulls the CJ really easy (like its not even there) with a tow bar. I'm sure it still will when I get a trailer down the line. I love this truck as a daily and...

My 79 CJ came with a tow bar and that's how I got it home a few weeks ago. I have no doubt that even with a trailer for it, the Ram can handle the ride. Without a trailer it was like the jeep wasn't even back there. The Hemi pulled it no problem. Stopping was another matter. Trailer brakes will...

Got a couple of projects to do to keep me busy through the new year. A couple of small things still on the way. The hard part now is keeping it to making this thing drivable rather than built up. That stuff can come a little later. This is the first "restoration" that I've done in a very long...

Right with you. The hard part for me is alway putting off the "cool" stuff until after the need to/mechanical stuff is done. Plus, writing the check for some of these parts is painful. They're worth it, but they ain't cheap.

Thanks everyone for the comments! I've secured a good deal on a storage unit for the CJ until we get into a house. Have that set up starting Saturday. Good place to store parts I accumulate too, hoping to score a significant discount on a suspension lift during the black friday sales. I'm...

Raiders of the Lost Ark Loved this movie since it was new. Can't decide which line I like better, but both resonate with me these days.

Well, this is happening way faster than I thought. I figured I would wait a couple of years and look for a project CJ and hope for a decent deal. Turns out, a great deal was sitting in a barn just southeast of me. I normally don't do much looking on Craigslist, but when I searched for Jeeps near...

Still lurking about, enjoying all that is Wayalife. :friends:
