well i picked it up this weekend and here is the skinny..
yeah body is SHOT to hell.. Frame is in nice shape.. how do i know.. I can see it b/c there is no body :) drivetrain is in perfect condition.. got the engine to fire on it own.. SEAT FRAMES are MINT.. this was really the only thing i was after. other misc acc. parts seem to be in good restorable shape..
on a funny note.. I dropped the Jeep off sunday afternoon at one of my warehouses where the CJ3a is kept in back.. got a call from the mgr this morning saying \"I didnt know Jeeps can asexually reproduce..\"

needed something with a bit more punch and a bit less long...
you actually have a great motor in there.. if i needed one i would be on it..
I think there is another CJ7 in this club with a worn out 258... he must be enjoying his cushy TJ and forgot..
