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.

Not long Dan
I have the tune port 350 and T700 out of a vette,Dana t/case,coil overs and diffs but dana 60s are old school HUMMERS are all the go the one with a 60% steer angle
No I will be keeping them for a comp rig as they will be worth more then the hole jeep so it will be getting 80s front and nissan rear diff my plane is to build it somthing like Matt Dunks old rig but with full rego so I can drive it every day.
My old LWB zook is for sale to if you want another project Dan

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.
