nice that looks like a fun project

[billyjp2]

that is beyond sick

[masswrecker]

nice M715 I have been dyin to find one nice find

[MrSimon]

Very cool. What do all the levers do that are next to the shifter?

[MrShaft696]

[kastein]

That cage needs way more triangulation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1 :jester:

Nice find! Hope you have fun with it.

I am thinking he probably doesn't know yet...

Nice score Brad!!! Is it running? Are you going to do a frame up resto or take sort of a rat rod approach. Either way it looks like a cool project.

[Hammered]

The levers... yeah they go back and forth








4wd and high low

Also has a PTO winch. Its very solid overall... I'm just gonna clean it up and do some touch up and use it for short trips / hauling stuff here & there. The brush frame is coming off, some of that tube will go towards a bull bar bumper I'm going to weld up. The interior is going to get some upgraded seats from a delivery truck... bed liner yadda yadda...

Indeed it is... It does need a few things to be drivable and to pass inspection. All of which came with the truck (Brake pads / Head lights) I'm gonna get it on the road. I'll see what I can get done before spring. Thats when I'll really tear into it. I have the plan already laid out.

I have plenty of help from a few good fiends.

[Hammered]

uh, nope...

:yelclap:

That thing better be ready to drive by the trail cutting :D

[Hammered]

I wish. I gotta do some work on this to get it inspected. I'm hoping to get it ready for the PA Jeep show (drive it there)

[rweaver138]

things a tank

[chedisme]

awesome rig. are you going to put a diesel in it? I saw you asking about it in another post.

I almost bought one of these things as my first car. but my dad talked me out of it.

[Hammered]

at this point. no... Now if the motor goes, then we'll see :)


However I can get a AMC 360 for free... so I donno what would be the plan. But I'm all about less expensive if it would be a good result. If I went with Diesel I'd be shelling another 3 Gs for a motor... Not this week. If you know what I mean

That thing is awesome... love it. Are you gonna mount two rows of seats in the back so you can give rides on the comp course at PA Jeeps?:D

[Hammered]

mmmm Probably not... I may attempt to make some kind of tire carrier out of the brush bars for the bed area. I wanna keep it up enough I can see out the rear window & use the bed.

[XJBeater]

Cool rig.

[Hammered]

cant wait for spring.

Theres your problem, that rear window doesn't belong there, 715's need to go topless, or at the most have the soft top on.

Looks like a solid base, I will have to get off mt ass and work on my M37 now

[Hammered]

I like the hard top. I'm gonna have the head unit & CB up there in a custom console

[bandit455]

can these things do doorless?


that would look cool, and once you go doorless you never go back

[Hammered]

It'd be much easier than in the XJ.

I do plan to do replacement rockers.

[pyrothugg]
