Installed the New Coil

Before the restoration the Jeep would cut out from time to time. It could have been fuel, or spark, but a few new components seemed prudent.

Phase III Restore

Assembly time! Using the hundreds of pictures, careful labeling, reading the manuals and most importantly consulting the internet, YouTube, and knowledgeable friends and vendors we put each component back together an on the Jeep. It was very gratifying to see each part back in place. Some parts had not been on the Jeep since it was on active duty!
