should I???? now with pics
I have a chance to buy a '55 Jeep Cj-5 for $1000. It has new brakes from master to pads (hoses and drums). It has a huricanne (f-head) 4 cly. t-98(t-18) 4 speed transmission. Dana 18 t-case with pto port. Dana 25 up front and a dana 44 out back. The back floor is bad but the rest it solid.

Re: should I????
I guess the question as a "dad", do you have the excess $$$ and do you really need it? Sounds like it would be a money pit for ya...
Now if you had disposable income...I say go for it...

Re: should I????
i dont have the money for it now. but it will be sitting at my shop teachers house for a while. its great on gas (ie. 4 cly). its runs and drives great its just not inspectable at the moment.
my dad told me that it would be a great project jeep for me and him to work on together.

BULL SHIT its going to look nicer but its still will get beat. i'll try upper (maybe). i wanna run maybe 33's or 35's not sure. dad wants to look at it and see if its worth it. like i said the body is rough. but nothing some rattle can paint and trail strips cant fix.
