Welcome.
Very cool project. Any indication of the status of the motor/transmission?

Looks like a good project. It appears that it might have an original PTO winch, cool.
Beyond any hope for intervention

It runs rough, dropped it off at the mechanic to check the carb and plugs. Might need a new fuel tank or possibly just cleaned out as the current gas tank is a 5 gallon bucket. Water pump is leaking as well.....

Sounds pretty normal for a project. Bonus that it runs!

Re: New '68 rust project!
Lift question.... I'm buying new shocks for the Patrol and was wondering if she has a lift or not? How do I tell? ( not seeing any body lift)

Re: New '68 rust project!
It appears that it may have a 'shackle lift', at least in the rear.
