I think the paint job on it makes it look worse than it is lol when I looked at it, it didn't look too rough

Staying original, factory drive train, wheels/tires etc. I'll be upgrading the electrical and fuels systems to make it as reliable as it can be for an old jeep.
Maybe a couple cosmetic changes but not much. I didn't buy it to win shows. I bought it to drive an old FC!

Are you going to restore the interior and fix any body dmg that there might be?

Nope!! I might bolt down the seats and install seat belts. Then again I have no desire to stay strapped inside on impact.
Slight edit: I will fix the hole under the grill

You've got yourself a very nice FC and a very cool ride. Man they're hard to find in any kind of condition better than scrap. From the general lack of rust I'm guessing this has been a Cali resident most of its life. Best of luck on bringing it back to life.:thumb:
