Moving projects you know won't get looked at for a long time isn't much fun.

Either is putting a t18 in the back!

Finding it had a rollbar was kinda neat though.

Can't post here but I'll post that finished article in my other thread
 
a 78 CJ5 for sale on craigslist. think those decals are original? definitely older based on overall patina

"well, you see, Bobby said it couldn't be done and I ain't gonna back down from a challenge so I chugged my Natty lite and grabbed a wrench..."

some sort of VW (including rear engine, with a CJ5 kind-of grafted in... amazes me the amount of work some put into something and then how it comes out.
 
Is that top chopped too? Tell me it ain't so. And the wiper cover appears to be on the outside.

wiper cover is on the outside due to the year of the CJ5 they chopped up. must be an early one.

Love those hidden Laredos that have been repainted. Fun to find those! Anyway, so what are the plans for this one? Parting anything?

Funny how someone would pay $3 grand for a Laredo package but not pony up the $125 for the power brakes.

This Jeep is very rough... hard to see as they bondoed over most of it and slapped new paint on it a while back, but the rear end is completely gone... the tailgate bottom is rusted out in a way I have never ever seen before, I will get some pics later on that.

Frame rear section is bad and tub is shot in the floor.

I will part it out, try to sell off the interior as a lot.
It has cruise, nice auto column, dash panel was cut, but good gauges.
Carpet looks nice, has roll bar pad... replacement windshield (double rib) and hood has a huge crease in it.
Grille is nice, cover as well... bumper has an slight bend to it on one side, hooks are there, but a little rusty.
Has chrome bumperettes, fold/tumble hardware is all there for the rear seat which appears nice, just filthy.
Dash pad has one small crack, but back is nice.
Doors are in very nice shape, just one spot on the passenger side pillar, no cracks, Laredo panels are good.

I picked it up because it was close to me, and it was a Laredo setup mostly there and the price was decent.

PS> I have to get some rollers on it and swap wheels... then I will clean and take pictures and post more.

Tires/wheels will sell instantly, 33's on aftermarket rims sell within a few hours of putting them on CL as new stuff is just so pricey.
 
Wow, that is surprising. I've never seen a Laredo with manual brakes... Always assumed power brakes was part of the package. Where they also offered with manual steering?
 
I don't like power brakes. Running 31's there really isn't any need for them, and if you die on a hill/ incline you lose a ton of your braking power.

I've always preferred manual brakes on a CJ. The one I had with PB I fixed once when the booster went bad, and then when the MC went bad I swapped on a manual MC.

That said, I'm weird and most people don't think like me.
