Ended my longest no jeep dry spell, after selling m,y TJ 2 years ago,

Just bought a 75 -Renegade CJ5 with 25k miles on it previous owner got it as a barn find and never did anything to it (much longer story but not worth getting into. ) nonetheless it sat pretty much for 40 years, the body is in amazingly good shape, minus the typical dings and small dents, like someone let the hood hit the window frame.

The the engine ran until the previous owner started the project of installing new headers(shrug). again long story.

Once I goit it home it looks as though the *koff* Koff* shop the previous owner had taken it to started his won jeep-asaurus build, took the body off and pretty much the any wires or and other lines are incomplete or cut.

oh and he took off and sold the roll bar which looks cool, but a great way to die...

So I am building it from the ground up.
Plan is to make it just slightly above stock look, minor lift for larger tires etc. but

My plan looks to include a rebuild on the V8, and the gearbox as well.
