With a SBC you can run a NV4500 which is pretty much bulletproof for your application. However, that's a bit wild for a build.... with a th350 I would be curious as to how long it's been sitting "decades?", and is the engine a fresh rebuild? I would be curious to see what transfer case he has.
Aftermarket seats for the early jeeps are only around $100 each. If the body is mostly assembled, and just finishing, it's good deal just to assemble, and have fun with.

He took the body apart to have it painted, and nothing is together. Doesn't seem to have too many pieces but I know its all there, dana 44 up front and 60 in back, not sure? Both are regeared. Motor was rebuilt about 10 years ago and has been sitting. I think it might be stock transfer case, not sure. That's not too had to find if a new one (aftermarket is fine) is needed. the Th350 is used from a friend of his. That's one of the reason for a newer 4 spd. He claims there's about 10-12 solid days of work to get it back together. I am not doing it, I don't have the time and don't know enough about drive line to get it to set up property. I am writing a check for this head ache to go away and enjoy later. Its needs wiring harness, but that cheap he claims.
