You picked a good one

Oops, doubled up on the croooked bumper Thriftside. Here's a selection:

**Willowrun** · 12-19-2015, 10:18 PM

I've always liked the old FSJ's too. While not a J10, I've had this 2 door '78 Cherokee parked in the way back of my shop for at least 10 years now. I replaced the frame from the front seats back a long time ago due to rust, did a spring over with crossover steering, and put full width 3/4 ton Chevy axles under it. With all of that I'm still only about half way through the project. Jeeps are a pain....

There is a very nice wagoneer about that year sitting in a carport near me for the last 25 years and I want it so very badly. I hear they wont sell it but one day I will stop and see.

This one makes me drool http://louisville.craigslist.org/cto/5365965746.html

**special-K** · 12-23-2015, 08:23 AM

Me too!! super nice one

andrewmp6 · 12-24-2015, 03:16 AM

Thats what kills me here any fsj jeep is either super clean and high dollar or rusted bad and ready for the crusher and 5k for it lol.

chipflyer · 12-25-2015, 02:21 PM

Here's our 86 J10, I just finished an LS swap and a complete restore. New paint, 2002 yukon 5.3 with 4l60e, functioning cruise, tilt and A/C. I really like the old truck, easy to work on and pretty stout. Don't see many around here that haven't rusted to the ground, this one should be good for another 30 years.

It sure is nice. I wondered if you would see this thread. I bet it's a pleasure to drive now. Talk about modern power with old style. That's a great match-up

RedRoad · 01-14-2016, 11:40 PM

Heres a J30 for ya, only $3500!

flashed · 01-20-2016, 01:11 PM

That is a nice one ,would love to own it.

**special-K** · 01-20-2016, 01:49 PM

HOLY TOLEDO!! I can't take it. WOW!

I'm sorry, you can't always hate white spokes. And I was the first to burn out on them. I also like other wheels more. This is how it was and that is what I can appreciate now.

flashed · 01-20-2016, 03:41 PM

The ONLY thing I can find wrong with that truck is it aint mine .

lowrollin70gmc · 01-20-2016, 11:03 PM

Dang it Special K, now I'm on the hunt for a J10. I sold my last driver/beater truck (83 Datsun 4x4) a few months ago and need something equally odd to replace it. Driving out to look at a 79 in a few days.

**special-K** · 01-21-2016, 09:01 AM

Sorry. While you're at it could you be looking for me too? All I could find was this one:

It's not for sale or I would be digging for coins

brad_man_72 · 01-21-2016, 11:19 PM

My 48. Maybe someday it will get resto modded. It needs a chassis, will probably get straight axle k20. It has been in my family longer than me.

flashed · 01-21-2016, 11:46 PM

I have never seen a dually J10 like the one above .

chipflyer · 01-21-2016, 11:53 PM

This one will put us back on track!

CrewCab59 · 01-22-2016, 02:18 AM

I finished this for a Customer

CrewCab59 · 01-22-2016, 02:50 AM

The same Customer wanted a custom twin turbo 6bt so here is what I built him.

CrewCab59 · 01-22-2016, 02:56 AM

Twin turbo .

chipflyer · 01-22-2016, 09:57 AM

Wow, nice work!
