We have separated the body from the frame. Next step remove the engine, transmission, and transfer box. Much of the drive train was encased in dirt which protected it from corrosion. It took quite a bit of effort to clean it off. Our plan is to continue to strip the frame down and prepare it for painting. Once the frame is prepared we can begin the process of putting it all back together. The brake and electrical system will need to be completely replaced. Things will move a little slower now that Spring Break is over.

Spring Break Spent Stripping the Jeep
The body is off and now its a matter of digging out the drive train covered with 60 years of Texas mud and dirt dobber nests.
