sounds like a cool project! would love to see pics, you can always save them to your picture file and insert attachment. making it 4 wheele drive shouldnt be that hard. you could always look for a cj5 frame with drive components to help out with the build also.
good luck!

Converting it to 4wd wouldn't be that difficult. Just need to find the right parts (junk yard) and time.
