My "other" ride :

[shamrock]

1971 Crusher/Toylet/Yoda...

Started life as a stocker...bought the thing in 1973 (I think I paid $3,000). Built as a 'All A Rounder' to handle anything....Rubicon, Pismo, Glamis, etc. Eventually stuffed a 327 Chevy into it and further down the road, a Turbo 400 auto (Wilcap helped me machine the adapter for this). Power steering came from some junk yard Chevy as did the rear disc brakes (front end I replaced with a 76 or 77 FJ40 unit to get the disc's up there). At the time, there were no avaliable posi units for the FJ. Downey Off Road was working on a design and they explained to me what it entailed so I went ahead and made up one for myself...posi came out of a wreaked Corvette. Rancho Suspension was new (previously Rancho Jeep) and they mocked up the springs on all 4 corners (probably crap compared to what they have today). Stuffed under the rear is a old Hickey Sidewinder winch (at the time, strongest one out there...9,000 pull). The entire front end is a fiberglass unit....tilts forward. Portions of the vehicle got written up in Peterson's Off Road Magazine (are they still around?) as did a couple other vehicles I built (everything was pretty simple back then...nothing like the really neat stuff they have today).

I bought this GC new and kept good care of it. I then bought another GC and passed this onto my son.

It is now pimped out. I only took one picture and now he has his winter tires on.

rofl No it's not photo shopped. We New Yorkers may be weird but we dont photo shop our cars. lol.

I would have taken a picture of the inside but as sham knows there isnt a kid around that keeps the inside clean.

This is what 15 years of evolution have turned into

Here is my new victim. It is a ’76 CJ5 body and frame with a ’79 straight 6 motor. It consists of about 30% bondo 40% rust and the other 30% is a decent motor , new rims and donor tires. We plan to rebuild the whole thing. I just finished installing a Weber carb and new wheels with tires I got form a friend. Next is to fix the brakes and e-brake. After that starts the frame repairs, rewire the electrical, new tub and fenders, seats and hopefully a hardtop. Serious mods will be coming in the future but not too soon. For now it will be a fishing, hunting and camping rig. In the back is the wife's '00 Grand. When we buy her a new ride I get that and it will get a lift and bigger tires.

[jeep cj7 304]

i got my jeep as a project for me and my dad to work on when i was 13. first it started off that we were just gonna make it run and then begin to modify it but then we decided that we should just rip it apart. so we fully rebuilt the motor and threw together the amc 304 with new headers, cam, 4 barrel edelbrock performer intake manifold and edelbrock 650 carb. we took off all the emmisions junk and threw on what you could call an exhaust (two LOUD side mounted glasspacks). then we threw the motor in with a t150 3 speed transmission and dana 20 transfer with stock amc 20 and dana 30 axles. i am just waiting til i snap those weak links before i replace them. i stripped out the old suspension and put on a 4 inch spring lift with 1 inch shackles and a 1 inch body lift, for a total of 6 inches. i then threw on some 36 inch super swamper tsl radials with a full size spare. I stripped out the nasty shag carpet and left it bare floor with some new racing style high back seats wiht 4 point harnesses. now i am beginning to work on the body so it can look as good as it performs.

now its time for pictures...
