Steve's "Homelander" CJ8 Project

Tail draggers and nose draggers are like manual transmissions and automatics: one is a lot of fun and take some skill and attention, the other doesn't.

Well, I found another engine I couldn't pass up... but I had to drive to Hemet, CA (1,000 milw round trip) to get it!

It's a 258 with MOPAR MPI, attached to a T-5 and a Dana 300. It was all running in mid-January, and the previous owner pulled it to install an SBC/700R4 combo. He was even nice enough to trade grilles with me, so I have the smog stickers. 8-)

I bought it from a guy named Mike, who is a welder/fabricator, and he's done a really nice job with his Scrambler. I invited him to visit CJ-8.com, so maybe we'll get to see some of his project as well.

Unfortunately, my project will be delayed while longer now, because after I got back from picking up this engine, I went and wrecked my Harley. I've got knee surgery scheduled for Friday, and I'll be laid up for 10 weeks after that. :banghead:
 
Hate to hear about the wreck. Heal up
