Re: [AMC-List] Brought home a Vigilante over the weekend...

No offense taken and I wasn't trying to be offinsive either.  Just didn't get what he was saying at all.  Lol...

Yeah, its all old-school stuff.  My interest in it was merely the motor and I thought the Jeep was going to be much more of a shitbox than it is.  I think its probably project-worthy, which sucks since I wanted to take the motor out and save it.  I do have a friend with an affinity for old Waggies that is already asking me about it, so I suppose he could drop in a newer FSJ 360 with factory parts if he wasn't concerned with being correct.  I have like 3 complete FSJ 360's with full accessories sitting around.  It would also somve my titleproblem, as it would then be his problem.  Lol...
