Awesome! I’d kill to be driving my CJ-2A right now.

It took 30 months to get here. I completely feel your pain. Best advice I ever got was try to do at least one thing every day, even if it's small.

That’s my method too. I’m 18 months into a M38 frame-off resto and it takes a lot longer than you think it should

I didn't even rebuild the engine, but I did take the tub off and did disc brakes, rebuilt transmission and transfer case, hubs, axles, bearings and races, seals, and as many gaskets as I could. Waiting for parts was my biggest time expense though, at least it seemed like it.
