New Jeep Project- 1978 Jeep CJ5

Here we go folks, we're up to more good! This week we're starting on John Koehler's Jeep CJ5 mod project.

We took off the front of the jeep to make unhooking the old engine easier.

 



 

 

 

We're taking the old 258 In-Line 6 out.

 

It still runs great if anyone is interested in buying it.

 

We're putting in a Chevy 305 small block with lots of pretty bells and whistles. I'll post more pics as the project progresses. Feel free to stop in and see how it's going!

Engine complete!

Nice rig!

Frame Repair, part 2

Wow! What a job this was. But the frame is replaced and looks great. More importantly, it's safe to drive again.

New Frame welded in and painted.

Looks better and so much safer!

Jeep owners, if you have any doubts at all about the condition of your frame, bring it by and let us inspect it for you. If you're still in good shape, there are things you can do to keep it in good shape.
