1959 Jeep Willys CJ5

We found a 1959 Jeep CJ5 for $5000 Temecula, California with a Chevy small block 350 4 speed Muncie transmission, this was very popular engine swap back in the 70 to 90s engine. That is why we pick up an iconic CJ5 platform to see if we can do a Mopar treatment,  We could already imagine it tearing up the trails.

At first, the plan was straightforward: drop in a reliable GEN 3 HEMI 5.7L engine with hellcat supercharger bolt up a 4-speed Muncie that come with theJeep, and keep it a budget friendly build. But, as with all good projects, things quickly escalated, and before long, the plan morphed into something much more ambitious then just a engine swap add all the sponsorlists
