    Jeep Scrambler Project

    We've started on a few upgrades for pap's Trail Scrambler!

    It is getting a transplant (Chevy 350 & TH350 trans from Lee Smiths old Scrambler).

    Will also receive new painless wiring harness & Tube fenders.

    I'm sure we will find a few other items to upgrade while it's apart.

    Hope to have it completed for an Easter weekend run somewhere.
