I used to have a Meyers hard top like that. Congratulations on the Jeep! I can't remember if '75 came with the Dana 44 rear or if it was the first year for the AMC20. I believe the frame is C-channel instead of boxed, which is good in terms of rust (shouldn't be rusted out) but won't be as rigid as a boxed frame. But that's fine because the CJ boxed frames weren't all that good anyway. They were just two pieces of CJ channel welded together. I've had to reweld mine together at a few points.
What engine does it have?
-
It has the 232 motor, I will have to look to see what rear it has but I think it's a 44
-
Is that big thing on the front bumper a push bar or is there a winch or plow mount on it?
-
It's just a push bar I'm not sure if I'm going to keep it on or not. There will be a winch on it just not sure when.

Nice! Looking forward to seeing it on the beach!
