New arrival 71' CJ429
« on: August 12, 2012, 10:12:21 am »
Hi Guys,

My 71' CJ 429 arrived on Friday.
November 70 build 1971 - J code Cobra Jet, Pewter Metallic with C6, AC, Tint, TracLoc, 8 track, tacho, black knitted trim.
Purchased from Ohio (not far from where I got my 68' S Code GT Vert).  Shipped all the way by Mainfreight, excellent service and care; would highly recommend.
Car has original engine (yellow leads need to go) and driveline.  Looks like all the panels are original (date coded).
Underneath is exceptionally clean apart from rusty exhaust pipes.

Will go through rego process soon.








Pete.

well done great looking car, Nothing like a J code 71,
 I've got a grabber yellow one, it's still in the states, getting some work done [panel and paint] before it's sent down under... Do you have a Marti report for it?
With enough Time and Money almost anything is possible
