NEW VENTURE

Well summer has been and gone, Jeep still gets used as it obviously now has a top.  "What do I do now" Jeep is running fine but I find myself wanting something different, a bit of lift, bigger tyres and a bit more power.

After weighing up the pros and cons I came to the conclusion that I would be better suited to buy another ride.  The main reason to get to what I want I would have to strip Jeep back to chassis, this would mean starting again, who knows what I may find, so let sleeping dogs lye.

Where do I start, where better than on the Net.  Started browsing, seemed to always end up in American Adds but then where are the most Jeeps and I find myself going back to the same site time after time as one is spoilt for choice. As most things you know when you have found it and it was love at first site.  Now to make contact and get the ball rolling. With crossed fingers I E Mailed the seller and Jeep was still available. At this point took a chance and made an offer which, I am glad to say was accepted. Some more photos were sent and I made enquires regarding shipping cost, duties etc. It was still looking a good venture.  At this present time we are still awaiting completion of Jeep (new Soft Top, new seats, and fine tuning) before making the final travel and shipping arrangements.

You may be asking yourself "is this not his CJ Page"?.  Yes it is and yes this is a CJ-7, not a YJ as it looks.  Details are: 1983 CJ-7 with YJ front end, tail gate and fender flares with high performance 401 CI engine, spring over with shackle reversal kit, 35 inch tyres and 15 x 12" Alcoa wheels, 3" exhaust system with flow masters and catalytics.
