The project is in the final phase now. It is on the road again! It passed the California smog test with the Chevy V8 and is re-registered with the DMV.
She runs great and is a blast to drive.
Still lots to do. I will finish drilling the winch mounting plate, then when it’s a little warmer, I need to take the rear bumper off and paint it with the winch plate. Need to finish the wiper linkages. Lots of issues with those and I am going to convert to newer Jeep YJ style wiper linkages. And I think the new springs have settled enough to get the soft top on and start working on the hard doors rebuild. Then I'll add the dual batteries and all my electrical accessories. So still a fair amount to do but at least I can drive it around and have some fun!
