Don't hunt with strangers

[nontactical]

I can certainly empathize... this last deer season I hunted with a new group and I was looked at funny for not drinking until the shooting was done for the day, and derided for not wanting to take a 250 yard off hand shot at a moving deer.

Hey Rondog... my envy at those pictures cannot be expressed with words. Jeeps are cool, old Jeeps are really cool, and 50 year old Jeeps are so cool that when I get to play with one on rare occasion I pee a little.

You'd probably like the one I'm restoring then. It's a '56 CJ5, that used to be my dad's hunting Jeep. It sat dry and unused in indoor storage for 30 years. I'm restoring it back to showroom new condition, with a few safety/reliability upgrades like 12v, 11" brakes, better steering, electronic ignition, etc. This is how it looked when I dragged it out into the daylight for the first time in 30 years.



First bath...



I've already had the frame and rear axle housing sandblasted and powdercoated, I've gotta get back to putting it together. The body tub is really cherry.
