Nice find! Congratulations on the new family member :clap2:

I was thinking yesterday how I need to spend some time going over the "Old Iron" section of the website because I've never really spent any time reading the threads.

Yep it was my first the jeep the one that started it all haha I might of posted a pic of it a while back but here's the only one I have on my phone lol

rust

Im surprised theres any rust on it, from what I have been told ite\s dry out there and snow is some thing you never see, Our first Jeep was a new 76 CJ5, it was the start of making them more civilized with upgraded steering column and shifter, spare on the side was a night mare. simple and easy to work on, CONGRATS on the new addition.:beer:

That 40 year old winch looks like it's in better shape than my 2.5 year old Chinese winch. Lol

Jeep looks good!

That's awesome man. I love the look and feel of unrestored vintage vehicles. Especially the ones with some miles on them. They're like that old perfectly worn in pair of boots or pair of jeans that fit just right. Great find! :thumb:

The fact that the winch still works is proof that a warn winch is worth every penny.
