Junkyard IDs

Post by Txflyer16 »

Ok, I’m still a new guy with some dumb questions…

Can anyone ID what jeeps these are? (See ID plates). Can I use any of these parts (specifically hood and windshield) on my ‘64 J200? Is it even possible to re-use junkyard glass effectively? Apologies for all the uninformed questions, but I jumped into this project a little blind and am now trying to learn what is what.

Thanks in advance.

J7 is 1977. F is a three speed manual. 25 is a short wheelbase J10. M is the 6025 GVWR. C is a 2V 258. The rest is the sequential serial number. Odd that the fenders have Cherokee decals. All the sheet metal will work from the cab forward. The '77 has a bar across the hood which you '64 won't. Typically the hoods don't rot out so I'd look for a good one. The red one has some dents.

You should be able to buy a new windshield. The red one is a 258 3-speed like my J10. That would be a nice drive train for your truck, if didn't want to keep the 230. Buy the whole truck and sell the core back to the yard.

The others I can't read the VIN. J7A is an automatic. 17 is a wide track Cherokee. P is a 4V 360 IIRC.

Thanks Tgreese, I really appreciate the help. The other numbers: 1JCNE15N3CT056307
Can you recommend where to buy new "old Jeep" glass? My truck currently has a Chevy 327 from '68 camaro and a 4 spd. I don't have a full plan yet but I'm thinking it'll be a wheeling rig with a completely new drivetrain and undercarriage. It may get a tail bob too.

I have not replaced a windshield, but others on here have. You could search old posts, or wait for others to comment.

Safelite had a new glass for my 81 wagoneer and 83 cherokee. They even had a new gasket in stock.
