Anyone have a good recommendation of who could do a good restoration. I have a 76 CJ7, pretty much all original that I am looking to get restored. It currently has the original 258 that needs a complete overhaul, but I am not opposed to upgrading to V-8. Upgrading to power disc brakes from the drums all around is a must along with wiring/gauges. The least of my top concerns is paint, more concerned about going through the mechanicals than visual. I am looking for a place to bring it, give them what I vision and work the plan from there. Wanting it done right.

I do not have the space and more than that the time to do this myself. Currently the CJ sits in the garage and will eventually rot away and it deserves to be back on the road.

*Please do not suggest Searcher's, not going to get into it, but I will not bring it back there.

Not sure if you want to stay local.

I don't know I can afford the complete restoration from Dennis Collins.

Oddly enough, I sent them the info to sell them my CJ, exchanged a few email and then it cooled off. From looking at the site, I only think they do 100% original.
