    Howdy From Texas!

    I'm new to this forum, not new to forums in general, I am a member of Zuwharrie and pirate. Not active on any much any more.

    I picked up a 74 J10 In a trade a few months ago.

    Cant wait to get her running and driving.

    No special custom here, just driving and working with her on the ranch.

    Thanks for having me.

    Caleb

    BTW I'm from Texas, and I'll let you know it.

    Welcome to the forums Caleb. Greetings from the Pacific Northwest, although it feels more like the Sahara desert at the moment. Is this your first full size jeep?

      I've been around lots, between my father and I.

      FC Fire Truck
      Unsure what year, CJ or Wylie with PTO shaft on rear
      Jeep Jeepster
      I'm actually unsure if those are all FSJs

      A wagoneer or two, gladiator I believe with the tornado or hurricane or typhoon engine.

      Driven, lightly worked on, sold and bought a few as well.
      Lol

        The Fc truck and the CJs are not considered full size Jeep’s. The CJs do share mostly the same parts as full size Jeep’s. Engines, transmissions etc. Fc trucks are welcomed on this site. There is a few cool builds I’ve seen in the past. They’re really neat.

            People have asked for my pictures. Here they are.

            Simple body on bolt by bolt restoration will be starting soon.

            Plan to start at rear bumper and sand blast frame and all steel remove and replace hardware and brackets that are broken (I work at a metal fabricator), and install back after spot painting, once all the frame is done, i will start on drivetrain, and lastly engine i will revert it all back to stock as much as i can.
