Strange Projects

[REDxj5150]

Besides jeeps, does anyone have any projects they'd like to do in their lifetime?

Since I'll be finishing school in 2 weeks, and I'll have a well paying job in 3 weeks. I've turned my thoughts to my spare time. Recently I've been plowing through the wiring on the jeepster, but what do I do once I'm done with the jeepster and need a tow rig??? All I've been thinking is 1960s winnebago for some reason. I don't know how smog laws apply to RV's, but I'd like to put a diesel in one and modernize the interior then use it to go to JV and Moab with.

I mean it doesn't get more classy than driving up with a 68' jeepster being towed by a 68' winne does it?

Define "classy".

Well... Maybe "retro" would be a better term. I want it modern, but with that old feel to it. Far better than the oildale definition of "classy." it will be firing on all cylinders and there won't be a bumper sticker that says, " if you're going to ride my ass at least pull my hair."

That sounds like a cool project. Maybe a 12v cummins with the fuel and timing turned up. Have a 15 second motorhome!!! Be fun to race the rice cars in it while rolling coal.

Wouldn't that be a bit strange to be passing cars up the grapevine or Tehachapi in a Winnebago hauling a jeep? Or pull up to a light on a Honda civic and smoke em out.

That would be more awesome than strange.

Matt in the Trailblazers has a '79 Vogue that has been redone on the inside. It's really nice. We've worked on and replaced the carburetor which is problematic on those older vehicles. Swapping in a diesel engine would be cool, but could get expensive.
