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..
