Like a dope, I bought another Jeep.

I'm 65! I still have a CJ-2A and '57 Bird with close ratio four speeds.
Remember I use to drive eighteen speeds, I'm tired of shifting! Besides I
use to race a B&M Hydro: http://www.billhughes.com/B%26Msticker.jpg

Thanks, I'm going to try to keep stock, except for the roll bar, unless
it's thrown a rod.

Thank God... You mean we won't have to see

Good Luck with it Bill.

I have owned some sort of a Jeep just about every day since I was 19.
NONE was better in any way than my 1976 (I think) Jeepster. Used it a
lot down Sandy Neck on Cape Cod towed down as a dingy to my "bread
truck" beach buggy... even with my wife driving it that J was
unstoppable in the sand. Your pix makes a geezer pine for the old
days

Very nice Bill !

I wish I could find a nice rust free Arizona vehicle like you did.

Yeah good luck Bill at 65 and still building them. I was wondering if
I was foolish for just getting into working on cars(well my YJ anyway)
the past 4 years when I was just 48!
Looks like a it will be fun.

Another Four hundred and fifty bucks in freight later, it's home, I
removed the rest of the rag top, put my CJ-2A license on it to keep the
local Gestapo happy, but managed to smash the other fender and bend what was
the only straight bumper I've seen, trying to reposition it in my driveway:
http://billhughes.com/jeepster.jpg
New radiator's dry and oil's over full, meaning possible head gasket,
new cap a wires, and exploded muffler meaning possible timing chain. Bummer,
I think I'll just sit and look at it for a while.
I got insured, and my Sister-in-law: Deborah, whom works for DMV looked
at it, took my plastic and one of the pinks to resister it. :-)
