steam the engine bay. if you have time and the ability, sand it all down and paint it flat green!

If your confident and willing to put some time into it.Tape evrything off and give it a rattle can spray job. I painted me 1980 k5 blazer with a flatblack spraycan and it turned out quite nice. Im not sure if you want to do that or not because you do need a bit of expreince with a rattle can to make make look nice. go to duplicolor.com they have plenty of how to's.

Clean it up, drive it like it is!! remove the gas can carriers from the front bumper. Here's a great forum for early jeep info; keep it original.
