My wife and I relocated back to my hometown in Florida two years ago and spent the next two years being envious of our neighbor's 1978 J10 long wheelbase long bed truck.
At the beginning of the month, we bumped into our neighbor who mentioned his friend had an early 80s CJ for sale and asked if we were interested. "Never hurts to take a look" we replied. One thing lead to another and our neighbor opted to purchase the CJ and we opted for his J10.
And so the journey begins...
First order of business, rust prevention. The J10 was first restored well over 12 years ago in TN, we are unsure how long it has been in Florida, but she's unraveling fast due to being beachside.
We look forward to becoming a part of the forum as my wife and I embark on this restore.
P.S. - And now I learn to be patient when clicking post, less I spam duplicate posts.
