Amcs have a very unique sound.prob the dog leg heads. And for those of you who whould consider a LS because ther,re cheaper. Don't. For off roading the amc will offer more torque throughout the power range than a LS.
I would definitely restore any Jeep from '41 - '06 than get a plastic '07 - present heep. The CJ-7 Laredo, CJ-8 Scrambler and the TJ are by far my favorite Jeeps. This is an excellent video and an even better restoration! O|||||||O 🇺🇸 Only in a 2 Dr 🇺🇸 '41 - '06
Living in Ontario Canada where it right now is minus 10 degrees I'm jealous of a climate where you can have the top off and leave it off unless you see rain in the forecast! Sweet ride love the exhaust tone .... realize it's an older video I'm sure it went for a decent buck.
It looks like a Tremec T-5, I have one in my CJ-7 it's light duty and won't last long if your not careful with the skinny pedal. I would be going with a Tremec T-176 or T-18 behind a 360 it will bolt right up and be a lot more stronger. If you are going for a 5 speed look at a AX-15, which can be hard to find.
@@larryalexander4833The Ax 15 is a great transmission sometimes hard to find. I thought you had a T5, those are not so strong. Thanks for the reply. Brian
It sounds so good that if someone burns their leg on it you don’t need them in your life anyway. Haha. You’d have to try to for that to happen. It’s tucked back under the body a bit.
Many have done conversions to have power steering and power brakes. And install seat belts. Then you have a Jeep that will last forever and one you would like to have forever, unlike the shit made from '07 - present.
@@JeepTJWheelin You people are showing you know NOTHING about '80s CJ's! They come with shoulder belts front seat belts back. Power steering and brakes since at least 1972! Gee my '85 5 speed even has one of those modern air conditioning systems!!!!!!!!!
