Here are some pics of my progress so far. So far I've changed fluids & cylinder head, removed a bunch of rust, deoxidized the body, added a coolant overflow bottle and have started a back bumper. I've got no plans for any major mods, just want to make it a nice, little, safe, drivable Jeep.

I've been patching rust holes, replaced the head, mounted some better seats, fixed the front fenders, built her a back bumper and have been driving her just about every day. 8-) Posted a bunch of new pics. I've been trying really hard to make sure all changes I make from stock use exsisting holes and will unbolt when it comes time for a proper restore :D Now for a rollbar, seat belts, wheel bearings and some 11" brakes :twisted:
