The jeep was hauled home Feb 2001 in relatively one piece. Though with a bunch of rust on the left side and in the low spots of the tub. The tranny was locked up and wouldn't shift, after disassembly and digging over a pound of dirt, oil and water out of it cleaning and reassembly with a tranny kit, as well as the same drill with the transfer case all worked well. Pulled the head and checked the valves and cylinders no scoring and the valves were good so we buttoned it up added oil and restarted it. After getting the timing right it runs well. The tub was pulled off and everything gone through and either replaced or repaired. Frame has been painted and the body has been primed. The whole thing was back together and we started it and drove it around the neighborhood on March 24, 2003. Photo updated 7/4/03 still primed waiting on the color coat and needing the bolt ons as well as a pass. seat and glass, otherwise she lives today runs great.
