Well as promised here are some pics of my new project... bought it from a guy in town that was moving and couldn't keep it... picked it up for $340.00 CAD, a good buy if you ask me.

needs a windshield, front drive shaft, and new tires in order to be on the road and a lift, bigger tires lol, and bush bumpers before i'm satisfied with it for the time being. It has some front suspension bushings and ball joints that are worn out but he gave ma all the new parts to fix it, including a new track bar (balljoint end it pooched), the dash was completly trashed but agian had a new one to put in to it, and also gave me $3000.00 worth of reciptes for the engine and trans being rebuilt 6 months ago...

included a before and after pic of the dash swap.

so here we go. let me know what you think.

Heck of a deal! nice project for you. some TLC and elbow grease and you will have a real nice ride. The Wheels are about $150. U.S. used around here if not more/ good luck with it.

Yeah the guy said he spent like $1000 on rims and tires a few years ago, I don't really like them was thinking of trying to trade them for a set of black 15x8' with tires but they may not be worth enough to float that idea, and cash is kinda tight right now. I have a set of used all-terrain 32's to put on the wheels to get it back on the road but will have to get a lift in there first cause i'm pretty sure they wont fit well enough to drive around.

Anyone around western Canada interested in a trade these aluminum wheels for some clean deep offset steelies let me know and we can work something out

Sorry mods I just realized I put this in the wrong forum can you please move it to the jeep builds forum.... (silly neeb)
