A 69 CJ5 with a 225. It is a slow build as funds become available. Have the body off will need floor pans and a new rear floor(one reason I liked your build thread!) Will pull motor and Transmission /transfer and start on the frame next.
It had been sitting for over ten years...last registration was in 96.

Nice, I know with my 3b the vented windsheild is the military M606 standard and finding one would be like finding the holly grail.
Good work.

It was well worth the 8 hour round trip to pick it up. It's in very good shape and i think it will look great on the 60.
 
The new wheel houses are almost finished, I just need to spot weld the inside flanges and the tailgate frame.
 
I'm assuming your going with the side mounted spare.

Really taken shape, looks good!

Very Nice......not much old sheet metal left!
What did you use for a spot welder? Is that one of those with the two separate hand held paddles?
