Smile JK Limo headed to NJ - in build now

Let me first start by stating that I am a proud JK owner and back in January I posted a thread about building a JK Limo. I have been in the transportation industry for a while and after buying my first Jeep and seeing the popularity surrounding this iconic model my partners and I decided to test the waters. My thread was in the Northeast section because our company is in Jersey. We asked for thoughts and feedback through the forum and other avenues. After some consideration we decided to push forward with the project and purchased a '13 Wrangler that we are converting to a limousine. We've launched this on Facebook and Instagram and after comments left regarding the build the suggestion was to post it on the forum.

I am not advertising my company or soliciting customers, just sharing the project as it comes to life.
