Re: anybody built theier own CJ frame?
I found out from an old Basque philosopher while I was in Spain, that the
secret of living well was "que pases el tiempo bien", or "spend your time
wisely". If building a vehicle frame is your idea of a good time, then go
for it. Personally, if I found a "30+ yr old OEM one" that was restorable,
I might enjoy doing that more. It is all a matter of personal taste.

Re: anybody built theier own CJ frame?
Not sure where you get the $.10 on the dollar. I know I could build a
new frame from 2x4" rectangular tubing faster than I could wire brush
and repair the excrement of the tin worms. I'd figure 40 hours and $.60
a pound for the steel. Same frame construction as used in the Cobra kit
cars that they bolt 427's into.
Just depends on what floats your boat.

Nice philosophy. I like it.
The only question it raises is "Then, what am I doing reading Usenet?"
