datzenmike Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Well you've done better than many first time posters by posting a picture of your truck but how about an introduction? Tell us abut your truck and yourself, plans, mods done, stuff like that. Quote Link to comment
joeyk803c Posted May 27, 2014 Report Share Posted May 27, 2014 Well, I had a 2003 Wrangler that I sold off. I picked this 72 up a few weeks ago. It's been dropped, IIRC like 2", new 12volt wiring, electric weber carb, electric pump. It needs work. Some rust spots on the bed sides, and a patch on the firewall. It currently sits, more than it runs. Idles rough. I need to order in a new cap and rotor. It has new plugs, wires and ignition coil. New valve cover gasket. Repainted valve cover. Brakes need work. Need some time to pull them apart and see what I need to fix/order/replace. Mods. Not sure. I'm thinking of getting it running better, brakes up to par and then throwing it back up for sale. Already have another project car, don't really need another one. If I keep it, down the road it'll get a SR20 swap, and other goodies once I have a reliable DD. Quote Link to comment
