    Today I bought my Dad's 67 Tuxedo Park. V6, Offenhauser, Holley 390, MSD, Pertronix, Comp cam, TH350 auto, Tera Low 3.15 transfer case gears, flanged D44 rear, 4.88 Powerlock, D27 front, powerlock, disc brakes, power Saginaw w/ AGR box and pump, BDS springs, shackle reversal, disc emergency brake, and much, much more. This was a complete frame up build completed in about 2002. It does have some rust, seems like it's rusting under the primer in spots. Too bad because the paint and body were perfect. Warn 8274, but that is coming off and going up for sale.

    Looks like a great Jeep!
    But, why sell the winch?

    Nice!
    What's up with Dad? Why is he letting the Jeep go?
    Getting something new(er)?

    He hasn't really driven this since he bought the TJ Rubicon 4 years ago.

    Excellent, sir. That sounds to be set up quite perfectly, IMO. And, kudos for keeping it in the family. Not sure how much sentimental value is there for you but, there seems to be quite an attachment to Dad's JEEP in the case of my kids. Whatever the case, I am happy for you for keeping it around. Looks great, too.

    Woot Woot - congrats on another CJ.

    What are the plans for this one?

    We need some pics of your Willys, CJ-5, TJ and your sons Jeep all together - that's an impressive line-up.

    Sounds like a nicely built '5 - looking forward to seeing some more pics when you get a chance.

    Cool Jeep. That automatic transmission could be really nice for a change.
