Jake saved up enough money to buy himself a Jeep cj7 last summer. I wish I would have started a thread when we got it. We have been in the process of going through everything. The previous owners were not mechanically inclined so we have had to try and figure out their way of thinking. They had cut every inch of wire out of it and changed the motor. We are several months into it and we are getting close on the wiring and have came along way on the rest of the Jeep but still have a lot of work left.
