Hey all long time no see . So it starts again I'm gathering my wits for another rebuild of the great CJ 8. I was in the 3rd accident in 2 years with my new 2018 CRV. Not 1 was my fault but it's ridiculous.. I don't know if it's the color or what but apparently my CRV is invisible to other drivers.
So I told my wife I want out of the CRV time for a Jeep Period. After a couple days of ideas being swapped back-and-forth like I'm going to get a Jeep LJ and her reply was but it's so old why don't you get a newer Jeep and I said you got $30000.
Then last night she blew me away by saying why don't you just rebuild the old Jeep this is a good opportunity and I said but it's going to take some money and she said like how much, under $10000 I said yeah and she said just do that…
...I did not argue with that logic at all!
So here we go!
Probably won't start immediately but as you all know, for all intents and purposes it's started!

So here we go!
- New engine, or rebuild
- Clifford or offenhauser intake with mc2100
- Needs a new bed & bulkhead
- Tires, shocks
- New lift
