I’m hopping you do a frame up on that J10. I have a 1979 J10 Honcho ( Levi) down to the frame now. Have a 400 SBC I built awhile ago paired up with the rebuilt TH400 auto Trany. My intentions is to make an overland rig, rooftop tent. Bush worthy. Be fun to follow along with you on the build.
4bt, fix some rust, get suspension set up for 37’s, throw a single single old school rollbar in the back , 5 KC rounds on top and run it! Oh and a beer tap shifter!!!
Dude I remember seeing that on Marketplace. Looks like a solid buy. I’d get it roadkill status and keep the look. Brakes, suspension, tires and a good tune up then roll with it. An Offroad recovery vehicle would be cool down the road.
i will never get why people use starting fluid. why dont you just pour gas in the carb bowel and carb throttle plates.. saves money, bought a 76 J10 a year or so ago. took me awhile to rebuild it... on my clips if you wanna look i have all the build stuff on there for what ive done. i rebuilt the bed and floorboards, leaf spring mounts all hadd to be rebuilt.. new springs.. tires etc.. still on going though, miine was wayyy more rusty sadly, but i can and did fix it all besides the bedsides i gatta work on.. im building mine to look like a 70-80s rally or off-roader youd see with lights and stuff, like the back to the future toyota the black one.. but nothing insaine.. i dont want swampers or massive tires or lift like yours has.. i put basic 235's on for now just to use it as a truck for now.. as it had 24 year old tires... later on ill do a 2 inch lift and 31's.. although 31's will fit stock on a J10 wide track... i personally never liked the look of a huge lift and massive tires.. more iin between.. i added a factory brush guard to mine and built a roll bar to resemble the factory one, and i add'd 4 rally lights on top... just gatta get better tires to get the look i want. take that cancer rubber mat out of the bed before it makes the rust worse What im doing to my truck is similar to what i did to my 90 gw, they look really good with a small lift and 31's.... anything beyond 2-3 inchs they "fsj" just look rediculous in my opinion but thats just me
@@sixfeetunderfab My dream is to buy that truck, I saw it since I was a child and I have never stopped thinking about it, I currently have a Daewoo Racer and a Mitsubishi Galant but I want that Jeep hahaha

I’m not against doing a frame up. I really plan on getting it running and driving and then see where it goes. Your build sounds awesome though.

I like your style!
AMC 401, NV4500, Dana 300 TCase. Super swampers, new springs and shocks and fix the bed.
That would be awesome
you can only wish... the 401 alone today is a 3-4k engine built... no one is gonna put that ina junker J10 like this
Junker?!? This J-10 is in it's prime lol
@@sixfeetunderfab i have 4 Jeeps and a J10. Yours is a peice of junk. And needs lots of work jist like mine did lol

yes, i agree with you on that. It has RoadKill vibes for sure
It's a hood lock for a pin and chain set up.
Gotcha! Thanks!
Amazing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks!
It's got a pretty cool look as is. And it runs!! Looking forward to seeing what you end up doing with it.
You and me both!

yeah I like the 80s style rally racer direction. I am going to redo the suspension on this J-10.
Aca en argentina esa camioneta se llama jeep gladiator es mi sueño esa chata es la T-1000
Are there many of these trucks driving around in Argentina?
