Fair nuff (about letting Jeepers know - as I'd agree it's probably not a common spot to look).
Is it a Willy's or Ford?
How original?

Its a ford gpw and as stock as they come I was going to restore it back to original and then I got hold of a tune port 350 chev and the planes changed so I started looking for 1 that was not as original to cut up.
There are photos of my new on in the members section under (blownzooks) posts as we went out driving and he put up some photos of it page 2.
I think you might here a bit more out of me as I was a zook man but am now converted as I say to all my mates its a jeep thing.

Matt Dunk had a green CJ based body ( front section ) on a Rangie chassis trail rig ( V8 auto ) prior to the current blue/white V6 version.
It was apparently sold to a mud runner

The newer one is much lighter than the old version

Mate dunk has sold the white old school jeep buggy and is going to build a new one so watch out he has a new turbo all alloy v6 and the plane is to make it lighter then the old one which was about 1000kg.
My jeep will be similar to his white one he just sold but v8 and regoed. :)
