Any chance of recording a video of it running, or driving it?

Could post over here too for free on Jeep Forum.
Might need to sign up, and respond to others posts to get your membership validated, then you can post to Classifieds......I think.

I would buy it in a heart beat but I promised myself and spouse that if I build another vehicle it will be 4 door so that it is more more convenient

That is nicer than I expected to see for the price.
If you can get it running, should be gone quick.....at least I think it should.

Id pick that up for my Off Road project if you weren't so far away! Id turn it into a Uni-body pickup, run 1 Ton axles, Rocklaurence Long Travel suspension and cut the fenders for 40's.

Hi,

I am 100% interested. Had a '78 before I was transferred overseas a few years ago. I can't figure how to PM you. Will try to figure that out for a few more minutes then will just put my email here.

Thanks you!
