And then I got it home.

I got the Jeep home and looked it over in more detail. First thing I had to do was find out what model Jeep it was, which wasn't too difficult. It was a CJ3B Jeep with its distinctive high hood and flat fenders. This model was built for export as it had "swing out" windscreen" that was a primitive form of air conditioning. The engine was a Toyota swap which is typical in Thailand as they are so easily available and easy to fix.

The dash was a mess of holes and broken switches and dials. The floor had been cut open to make way for the Toyota gearbox and the suspension was shot.

It was about at this point that it all started feeling overwhelming and I didnt even know where to start.
