If you are interested, check it out.

Indeed !
Looking at the rest of your writeup, I didn't realise CJ dashes had "Hot"
and "Full" on the left of the temperature and fuel guage as opposed to the
usual right.

Thanks.  The bumper really wasn't very hard.  Hardest part was making
the cuts.  A plasma cutter is probably the way to go (which I have
access to at work), but I don't like asking favors.... so I did them
with a combination of high speed cut-off wheel, angle grinder, and
sawzall (with a demolition blade).

As far as Hot and Full on the left as opposed to right side.....you got
me, it's the only CJ I've owned so I assumed it was normal?
Dave Milne - 16 Nov 2005 21:05 GMT
Sure it is normal on CJs, but every other vehicle I've had has had them on
the right :-)

My 1982 CJ-7 gauges are the reverse of his.  I'll post a picture link
shortly.

His look like aftermarket gauges.  All the CJ's I have seen are opposite
to that.

Mike that is probably a French gauge.

It's ALIVE.....

Check out the newest update...  Do I look happy/relieved?  Still a lot
of
work to do, but at least it runs now!

I think the smile says it all!
Man, that's lookin' good! Reminds me of my ol' ' CJ5.
Don't ever get rid of it! (I regret giving mine up years ago......)

My nephew CJ is 5 right now.... maybe when he's 16 I'll have to give it
to him.  He needs to drive the vehicle he was nicknamed for.

Charles + John (both grandpas names) = CJ

Nice looking bumper.  I spent about $250 for something like it from Tomken,
and the fancy powder coated paint job has rust showing already.
