Thanks, we are very happy with the find and the more we look at it to more we want to at least get the right engine in it, fire it up and get it driving before we do anything body wise. That way we can figure out what we want to do from there since like you said it would be a shame to cover it up.

Thanks. They have so much character that is hard to find these days. Also good luck on your search.

Thanks guys! I will be updating info and posting more pics here once I get working on it. I just wish I had the floor space in my shop to start working now.

Yeah the guy kept it oiled and hand spun the crank every month to keep it free and it's really smooth. So I'm guessing it won't need much to fire up.

As I said earlier the original engine had been swapped out for a F series engine. So we took to the interwebs to find just how hard it would be to find an original engine. Sure enough it was going to be hard since they aren't many left. The original engine is a L-34 Go Devil. As luck goes I...

Thanks everyone! We are very excited and we have discussed getting it running and fixing a few of the bad spots, then keeping it the way it is. I don't know what is better actually getting to work on a piece of history or all the cool info you get from researching it.

Thanks weren't really looking for it but just came across it and it was to good to pass up.

Thanks, we are really looking forward to getting it back in shape.

Here is some more pics.

Where to begin... I guess the best place is on a relaxing Sunday while surfing the web, I came across a 1951 M38 Willys. There was not much info on it other than it has a title, runs drives and needs break work. So after talking with the owner it has all the original markings (or what's left of...

Got a long travel upgrade and a few other goodies for the XJ.:)

A pic I took not to long ago while camping.

Here are some more pics of the track bar and cross brace. I also added a few day shots of the new lights, night shots still to come.

Its been awhile since I updated this thread but I have finally had time to finish a project I started. I wanted to clean up the interior a bit since it had 15 plus years of stains. So I ripped out the old carpet and gave the tub a good cleaning. I also added sound mat to the floor (what a...

If I missed it by chance sorry about that and disregard this post, if not a thread showing off Hydro blue jeeps would be nice! :)

I came across this the other day. I for one have always wondered what I could use this spot for, I have seen speakers put there but was never a fan. I always thought it may be a good spot for a extinguisher.

That was the last of the major mods that I have done, besides use it. Not to long ago I also swapped out the radiator with a brand new one since the old one had started to leak. The below pics are just some of how she sits today and her out on the trails.

I haven't been around long, but have gotten requests for more pictures of my rig. So I decided to write up a quick build thread for it. Although the build is for the most part finished (they are never really finished) I still tinker with things on it. Also please don't mind the few out of order...

I have always wanted to build some sort of drawer in the back. I have seen a few designs that looked great but have yet to make one. Right now I store a strap, snatch block, and winch cable under my rear seat. I also have a tool box and hi-lift base in the back where the spare used to be and...

So I have been wanting to upgrade my steering in my 98 XJ for some time, just haven't been sold on what to go with. Has anyone done any upgrades? If so what did you choose to go with? Any feedback would be appreciated.
