Ian's FSJ build...

Custom Search

[Ian]

This is the start of my FSJ build.  82 Cherokee.  it needs a 360 (which i have out back) and a little tlc.  the gas tank skid (and maybe the tank) and part of the frame near the tank are rotted, but other than that its pretty good.  i realized i will be bored this winter so i better start a project.  more to come (obviously)

the previous owner had an engine fire so everything in the engine compartment is toast...everything.

since the goals i had at the beginning of my last build worked out so much  i won't make any plans for this until i get it running.  i am thinking of painting it brown but that is about it right now.  if i don't fall in love with this rig i will eventually sell it for a motor for the tj. 











this is my donor engine waggie. (an 83 with more rust than you can shake a stick after)

Looking forward to this build.

Besides the plastic on the engine what else is wrong with it?

Seems one of the two 360's would be a nice swap for your tj.

Buy Migules 401 in his buggy.

Oh and the guy you got the Jeep from was in the machinest union, I see the same local sticker on the small window, I used to be in that union.

Sweet........................

I am excited to see that this project is finally under way.  Let me know when you are going to be working on this bad boy and I'll run up to iFab in the J10.

These stupid fsj are easy to "fall in love with" especially after the 1st major snowstorm.

If you ever need misc interior parts or wiring harness and random junk, let me know as there is giant bin of stuff out back at work. Used old parts Bob Barry gave to my buddy Carmelo that we don't want to throw out.

And if you need anything else for it, you know who to contact! 

[Ian]

do you have a steering column/horn assembly/ inginiton key lock?


i need all new wiring under the hood, but i was planning on taking it out of the parts jeep.

[Crown Automotive - Jeff]

I'll shoot you a pm.

Also, I love the hood "golden eagle" fade.

[Mitch]
