This one is mine. It's been in the family for 15-years or so, but been garaged since around '98. My wife bought it for me as a surprise project - which I've never had the time to spend on.

It' a very solid Jeep, has the original 231 Buick V6 that turns over by hand. It's missing the Rochester 2bb though.

Located in east-central IL(60963)

Wished I could see the pieces here at work. I've been jonsing a v6 jeep for years. It will be gone by the time I can get home and see them.

I had an Olds F-85 with the same motor

Dan, I can just imagine the AWD V8 autocross beast with 20"-wide slicks you'd build out of it.

All it took was me to show an interest.

i would have bought this if you didn't. I guess I'll just look at it as not having to make an 8 hour round trip to pick it up

It would have been a lot more than eight hours for me each way. If it had been close by, it would be here this weekend.
