Hello From Down Under!

CJ7Romeo

New member
Hey everyone!

I just recently bought a 1979 CJ7 to restore, but have no idea where to start. The whole vehicle has been pulled apart, now its time to start sourcing new pieces and putting it back together again! Im new to all of this so have no idea where to start, what do you recommend? Start on the body and work my way in? Go from the ground up?

Who here has done a CJ7 restoration, and how would you recommend I go about it? Where is a good place to source CJ7-compatible hardware that is also affordable (Im based in Australia and would like to keep it local) I want to keep costs as low as possible, Any and all help will be much appreciated!

I'l post pics of the whole operation as soon as I get it underway!
 

Welcome and enjoy the forum! Good luck with your project.
 
I would start from the ground up and the body would be my last project. Go on eBay and search normore jeep. They will have most of what you need at a cheep price because it's used but good parts. I get all my jeep stuff from them. If they don't list what your looking for just email them at normorejeeps@gmail.com. Good luck and post pics.
