Re: Does your Jeep have a name?
Yeah, well it does now. It didn't when it got the name. I think the name
came from my brother-in-law who had the first race jeep which was a '74 CJ-5
he sold that (which he's still kicking himself for) and bought a '76 Harley
Sportster (which he sold because he needed the $ and he's kicking himself
even harder for). I yanked the 258 in mine which never ran very good and
sure never had much snort. A few years a go I put in a 360 along with some
other motor goodies. BTW, it's an '84 CJ. Same or better mileage too.
