Me either but I wouldn’t care.

Maintenance, upkeep, and fixing up the few jalopies I have is a bear being a full time working person.

Some of my powdercoating on the Willys is a few weeks overdue and should be ready tomorrow or Tuesday. Some misc things, front bumper, and the windshield frame. As soon as the frame is ready, I will drop it off where the glass is and get that back in. A major step forward. The fuel tank along with a replacement M38 style dash are next. Both fenders due to price will be last. The tub I think is salvageable. It will take a good sheet metal person.

I dropped off CJ7 seats to be reupholstered Friday.

The blazer I haven’t touched in months but will some day.

At some point I will tackle rewiring my CB750 project.

I don’t have much of a life as it is.

Replacement CB750 wiring harnesses are available on the market right now. You can get one from Honda or the aftermarket. https://www.vintagecb750.com/products/5/electrical/55/wiring-harness

Takes maybe an hour or two to install, tops.

I had a CJ-7 V-8. Piece of junk (rusted) body but that thing went through snow and crawled on even icy streets like nobody’s business (with Wal-Mart tires).

I wanted to buy a replacement body and do a frame-off but it never happened.
