Salvage / Junkyard / Abandoned Finds

[Ratchet]

I looked to see if there was already a thread for random junked/abandoned Jeeps, and didn't see one....sorry if I missed it.

In any case, I tend to spend a decent amount of time in junkyards, and sometimes it brings a tear to my eye, seeing a 1967 Camaro, or a 1971 Chevelle, or the like. Sometimes, it's just driving through the country, and seeing a yard car, overgrown with roots and rust, sporting a GTO badge.... Something that someone could, should, be restoring.

So, I submit the Jeep I found today. 1974 Jeep DJ.

Looked in pretty good shape. Mostly complete. Had a Painless Wiring kit... so someone was either driving it, or trying to, not too long ago.

If only I had enough money and space. That would make for an awesome build.

I was under the impression jeeps always had 7 "slats"? In the grille. That has 5

I thought that too, but looks like the old DJs had 5.

I've been looking for a Rubicon quick disconnect system for my jeep as I want to pair it with the new evo air disconnect and not finding any parts off a Rubicon in general. If I order a new one it would be close to $1,400 online. I feel like it is a better set up than running a currie antirock because it is my daily and Eddie mentioned before it still limits some flex.
