Restoring an Older Jeep CJ

Fiding a late 1940s to 1971 Jeep CJ, in restorable condition, might not be the hardest thing to do. However, restoring an older Jeep CJ into a back-country rock crawling, highway traveler or urban commuting machine that will turn heads and provide you with years of motoring, is a completely different story.

If you are looking for such a machine, one book that is indispensable to guide you through the restoration process is Jeep CJ Rebuilder's manual, 1946 to 1971, written by Moses Ludel and published by Bentley Publishers.
