Greetings all!
Much thanks for allowing me to join this group.
My 14 y/o son and I just acquired a '53 CJ3B. We're excited to begin the process of restoring the "Old Man". This jeep has actually been in my family for many years, and was used as a hunting rig. It was parked about 15-20 years ago and nearly forgotten. My son begged his grandfather for the jeep and finally got him to say yes. The Old Man isn't much to look at right now, and aside from the years of neglect and years of hunting trips, I am seeing signs of modifications that would have been done prior to my family getting the rig back in the late 1980's. Pictures to come soon hopefully. Thanks again for allowing me to be here.
