TBT – Body on a Cart

Years ago the jeepfan.com 78 CJ-5’s frame was in bad shape so a donor Jeep was found and a frame swap project was underway.  Some frame cleanup and reconditioning made the donor like new.  Here’s a pic of the body on a make shift cart waiting for installation on its new frame.
