Barn find...

Father-in-law bought this old CJ-5 project awhile back. Very little rust and frame is fantastic. Half cab is kinda cool.
Not bad for him to keep busy with. First Jeep for him. 81 years old and dedicated street rod builder his whole life. Built probably 25 top notch street rods and would sell them after completion. I think he got interested after driving my YJ some.

That Folgers coffee can is a dead giveaway he is over 80 years old. Pretty sure every 80 year old has metal coffee cans in their garage.

Wait a minute... I'm only 62 and I have several. This brand too.

Guarantee if you millennial's told that 81 year old what people pay for coffee at Starbucks, he'd think them retarded.

I think they are retarded too but mostly has nothing to do with the price of coffee.

I had several Folgers coffee cans full of nuts and bolts at the age of 18 LOL

they're long gone but my neighbor showed me his collection of full coffee cans over the summer when I mentioned I needed some thick washers lol

That's a great project!

Yup. But with the price of gas and depending how far you have to drive: it might not be worth it.
