Default Juliet
Ok so I spent a few months bitching about the prices of CJ's before I finally found my Juliet.

Australia Day 2011 the restoration began when I went to pull out the big BBQ bottle in the back. Got the bottle out but had to drop the petrol tank to get at the BBQ bottle straps from underneath.

Found a 2 inch square welded into the petrol tank, and some more rust in the tub....... got a feeling that's going to be a standard line ..

Anyways it began. Tank out. New tank and sender on it's way.

So I found some corrosion on the skid plate as it looked as though moisture or water had been sitting in there unable to dissipate or drain.
So I put in four matching drain holes to keep it a little dryer.

Also, the tailgate on old Juliet has a little cancer ...
LUCKY ! I kept the tailgate, from my very first CJ 7. My first car at the ripe old age of 16 !!
