It is, one day Ill have him come to one of our meets. Everytime we have one he is working on it, but I think we got it in a decent running condition. It has the original AMC360 in it with unknown mileage.

Nuke not sure how I missed your post on my build thread so I figured I'd post my reply here as well.
Thanks buddy. I'm in Alexandria. I've been down to them a couple times to pick up some odds and ends. Seem's like a good group. Am considering getting an ARB Bull bar from them.
I read up on the U-Turn kit but have not reached out to ORO yet. I like what I'm seeing but need to track down more information before pulling the trigger. Do you know what the cost is off the top of your head?

Man I liked what I saw on the ORO steering setup but MAN that's an expensive steering kit.
Also I've been talking to Ironman "Andy" about his longarm set up. He's not happy with his cross member and never was really so what he's doing now is selling his long arms with a Rubicon Express Cross member. Their cross member is a 3 piece cross member so the center portion can be unbolted so you can drop a transmission, without having to pull the whole cross member and undoing the longarms. For a long arm upgrade kit from him will run near $1,000. So looks like I found my next upgrade.
His first cross member looked like this. But wasn't happy with it.
Then he made another version that was a 3 piece cross member like this one. But still was not satisfied with the way it turned out.



But he still wasn't happy with the design so now he's using the Rubicon Express 3 piece cross member. Where the Long arms bolt up higher so there not hanging lower then the cross member and don't get hung up on anything.
