In Wheeler Dealers season 4 episode 3, Mike Brewer and Edd China take on the challenge of restoring a classic Jeep CJ7. Initially, the guys are unsure about the potential of the vehicle, as it appears to be in rough shape. However, after some investigation, they discover that it has a solid frame and a good engine, which gives them hope for a successful restoration.
The first step in the restoration process is to assess the areas that need the most work. The guys find rust in several spots on the body, including the floor and the rear quarters. They also discover that the seats are in bad shape and will need to be replaced.
Once they have a plan in place, Mike and Edd get to work on the restoration. They remove the body from the frame and begin to address the rust by cutting out the affected areas and welding in new metal. This process takes several days, but they are eventually able to get the body back in good shape.
Next, the guys turn their attention to the interior of the Jeep. They replace the worn out seats with new ones and add a new roll bar for added safety. They also install a new center console and shifter, which will give the vehicle a more updated look.
With the interior complete, it's time to focus on the engine and drivetrain. The guys strip down the engine and rebuild it from scratch, replacing any worn out parts. They also add a new carburetor and exhaust system, which will give the Jeep more power.
Finally, the moment of truth arrives as the guys put the Jeep through its paces on the road. After all the hard work, it's clear that the restoration was a success. The Jeep CJ7 looks and drives better than ever, and Mike and Edd are happy with the finished product.
Overall, this episode of Wheeler Dealers is a great example of the team's ability to take on a challenging restoration and turn it into a beautiful, functional vehicle. Fans of classic cars and restoration shows will love watching the transformation of this Jeep CJ7.
