“This jeep is as original as I could keep it with required repairs and safety upgrades. It has the 134L Go-Devel engine and three speed gearbox/two lever transfer case and is set up to shift into low range while in 2WD if desired.

All lights except headlights are LED so it is not original, several other items
were also added/changed, such as power brake/vacuum assist hydrovat added,
rear fenders/flairs to keep from getting mud & rocks flung up the back of my
arm, custom gas tank (alum). seats came out of a 69 Ford van and were recently
repaired and recovered. No heater. manual wipers, windshield glass is from heavy
equipment stock cut to fit.

Has chain driven MB engine with about 2200 miles since complete rebuild.
Chain & timing gears are double roller set from Ron Fitzpatrick at G503.
Still has the shovel indent but ax spot was lost to rust. Has a good set of 16″ KH Wheels
with Cooper tires, including the spare. We rolled 11ga diamond plate on the rear corners
since they were totally gone, and the front & rear forks/frame were beefed up and sturdy
2X4 channel bumpers were welded on. There are 2″ receivers front & back and a new set
of Rigid Industries LED floods on the front bumper. Have gone through the gearbox, put in
sealed bearing and new 2nd gear plus seals, etc. has full floating 538 rear.
Newly upgraded to electronic ignition, which I’m liking very much.

I have the original flat windshield bars opposed to the lollipops to go with it, and you
can have the aluminum top seen in some of the pics if you wish and I had just got a
full set of new data plates but have not put them on.

This one was my first project and quite frankly was so far gone I figured it couldn’t be messed
up to bad since it was ready for the scrap heap, in contrast this is a VERY solid jeep.

THERE IS NO BONDO ANYWHERE ON THIS JEEP, I USE FIBERGLASS WHERE REQUIRED”
