Mud bash jeep for local mudrun

This is my next project. I was told it runs but the body is shot but it was free so I can't complain. It is a 75 jeep j10 that will become a rat rod mud truck.

This is the new body. we are going to stack the frames and weld them. this was a jeep grand wagoner but the body was shot so my uncle made the new body but now the engine is locked up and the front axle is locked up so we are putting it on the j10.


Sorry for the sideways image not sure how to fix that

Nice project, I bet its going to look awesome. I like the custom body your going to put on it, looks kind of like a mad max build!

I think your jeep has/had more rust than mine.

Looking forward to see what you come up with

Jeez how is the engine still good in that thing? it looks like it was sitting in a pond...or a swamp

Yeah that home made truck body thing is pretty cool, looks like a some kind of train almost

The Jeep's J10 engine, a strait 6 or the 360 V8? I got 2 84 Wagoneer's with the 360's in them. Great motors.

it has the six cylinder and it still spin over free we had to clean the carb and three of the four tires still hold air and that's after sitting for 20 years in the woods

Looks like that one has been sitting a while. Looking forward to seeing the custom body going on

The throttle butterfly is stuck so I had to clean the carb

Oh so you're just stacking the frames? I thought you were putting the body from the one onto the frame of the other

Ya the body is welded directly to the frame so stacking frames is faster and we have 2 weeks till the first mudrun opens
