Mine began its life as a February 1974, now it includes pieces of 1970, 1971, 1975……

The 75 includes more than i can remember.
Major items include a 1/77 frame, front axle, short block. The 2/75 tub, trans and transfer, hood, doors, windshield frame, aprons and jump seats.
A 70 hardtop sides, a 74 fiberglass cap, another 74 gave up the lift hatch, yet another 74 gave the front seats. And another pot luck on knobs, pull cables and misc other guards and so forth.

The 61 is pretty much 61, other than all four seats and the windshield frame....and that could have been replaced with new oe back in the day.
 
Mine is still mostly ‘79-80. I did put an FJ60 distributor in it, an H41 from some unknown year of Aussie Cruiser, and an FZJ80 brake master cylinder, but the rest of the mods are all aftermarket stuff - ARB, Orion, 4+, Warn, City Racer, MetalTech, etc.
 
Mine is all 1968, engine, transmission, transfer case, axles, tub, top..

However, that’s not to say it’s all original, lots of GM parts….carburetor, steering, brakes…..and I think there is least 1 Mopar piece in the mix.

But its heart and soul are still a 1968.

Peace Out, Rock On Dude!

So far I think 2. I had a good opportunity to grab all sorts of parts off one crushed in a barn collapse many years ago and have used a few over the years as necessary. I also got some running gear off a wreck but I think that hasn't been needed yet. At least it's not a patchwork of different colored body panels.
