    Well now that I'm almost done, it's time to share.

    I was kind of forced to restore my near perfect '74 CJ5, but now that it's almost complete, I'm glad I took it on. It took me 4 months to complete but everything is new and I'm a happy man again.

    I managed to replace the wiring harness, the clutch, the brake lines & MC, the body mounts and suspension are all new poly, all of the fasteners are SST, new HeaterCraft heater, LED interior and tail lights, new gauges and redesigned dash, new glass and more.

    I think I'm up for another one, now I have a lead on a '47 CJ2A, it is family owned, I hope things pan out.

    Take a look and let me know your thoughts.

    Just wondering, why were you forced to restore a near perfect jeep?
