Looks like he's down to $1200. ;) I may be interested in going in half if all you want is the drive train.

Purty sure '87 til 94. I can't remember if Vortec started in '95 or '96. You will want to get the whole TBI vehicle.

Thanks I like the old school look also. I did screw up a little though. The paddle to release the hood is just above a shelf that seperates the radiator from the engine compartment area. With the new Grill I cant get my fingers in there to pop loose the hood... I can do it with a screw driver but thats not the answer... HUMMMM?

Hmmm is right. Might need to check out the FSJ forums, which I think is where I read about doing that mod. I wonder if the release lever needs to be relocated. If I find find the threads about it I'll post back here. Or maybe another SCUFFer knows the answer to this? Thanks I like the old school look also. I did screw up a little though.

I traded a full set of very valuable collectors edition SCUFF stickers for two CJ headlight rings today. Scuffed them up and sprayed on some hammertone black paint for that menacing look ...
