Default Choped 2dr Chief

well nothing was going right sunday or monday so I started to cut up a MJ that I had for parts... cutting stuff up just makes me smile.. and well it can't go wrong...( ok well ya could cut yourself)
after some cutting I took a battery over to an old 87 Chief 2dr 4.0l 5 speed I had and drove it over to the garage.

pulled out the sawzall and away we go


yesterday in the am I took the rearcab of the mj and welded it on the back of the 2dr.. I have pics but have to down load them.
have the box rails, iner box panles and tailgate to be weled in next. i am also going to weld in the box floor of an mj so it looks like a nice finished truck.
weekends project. will post soem more pics tonight of the progress

Oh here is some pis of the yard. and the reason I can just do what I do.. I do not have to go find parts. LOL

oh I run a all jeep parts yard. and thats not all the jeep in the yard I just bought 2 more f/s with 360's and have a Cj comming.
as far as collection over the years na this is not even a years worth of buying. I had to clean some out in the fall and crushed the shells of about 12 and have sold off 15 or so in the last year that I have brought back to life.
I have the rear part of a comacnhe cab on the choped xj now just a bit more welding to do, then I am putting the box rails and tailgate on.
as far as being rusted its not bad. the floor is 1/8th plate and the rust you see is just throught the paint no holes.. it needs rockers but I plan on sliders so no big deal their...
going to fab in a rollbar off one of the yjs I have.

I have a few sets of the rear wing windows>>>>>>>>>>

Heaven does not look like this.... this is Jeep City a step just away from heaven as most of the jeeps here are doners for others to live on. then they go to heaven. LOL
here is some other stuff in the yard
