"I am looking forward to fixing the "Tux" up. The F-Head 135 I-4 should have enough power for what I want to do with this JEEP. Maybe by next year I can buy a CJ-3B flat fender and also work on a newer CJ-5 or CJ-7 for the tough trails." - Jamie

Gina & Paul Hudkins' 1980 CJ-7

Gina & Paul Hudkins' 1980 CJ-7

They bought it with 91,000 miles, a howling rear-end, a badly peeling paint job and very slick tires.

Since then, they ahve slowly fixed all of that with: a firecracker red with mother of pearl paint job, a 304 AMC, T-18 transmission, Lock-right lockers (front and rear), line locks (front and rear) for those really nasty up hills that choke the life out of a Edlebrock carburetor. Aluminum intake, 4" Skyjacker springs with a add-a-left in the front. An 8,000lb Warn winch on the front (mounted on a custom built front bumper, compliments of Paul's Dad).

It runs on 32" Super Swampers on the trails and 31" BFGoodrich for the street. They have a custom built roll cage, with a sound bar.

"A lot of blood and sweat and love has been poured into our CJ...we really love it. We named it LilRed...she looks stock.. but she's not."
