PRICELESS!!

that's right ya'll! as of wednesday my baby will be on the road cruisin around!!

 

Awesome to hear, I have been waiting for it

You have done an incredible job, all around.

 

Well I hope it is the ride of your life. You have put a ton of time and effort in this project. It is time for a victory lap. Enjoy!!!!

 

got the chassis saver done on the windshield frame, need to prime and sand it before paint so it's smooth.

painted the 3rd brake light bracket in flat black, figured it would be a little more contrast and look better.

cleaned up the garage a touch

painted the front bumper, bolts, and d-ring tabs all flat black. killer (still a little wet in places in the pics)

 

...it is murder black, not flat black! It looks great. I will be checking back for pictures on Wednesday.

 

Sweet! I guess you found a couple of wheels?

 

not the good ones ... looks like i'll be running around on the "stock" (mismatched) rubber for a few weeks. no big deal, i wanted to get used to a baseline anyways. then the wheels and tires followed by the tuner.

with any luck they will come in while i'm on vacation and i can pick em up right when i get back.

 

on Wed night you'll see it with plates on there and pimpin down the road as a complete jeep (the Beta release of Jeep rebuild V2.0) wheels and therefor tires won't be on, as well as the swingout still not here. the V2.0 rebuild won't be completed (released) till then.

i also have a few more things like gears and other idea's i gota do ... but need more funding for. V2.0 will not go unchanged for long.

and since the jeep thing has become terminal for me ... i can't decide for V3.0 and V4.0, should the v-8 or the long-arm's and d60s come first

 

last night i went out with an old buddy i hadn't seen in forever, so that's bobby there drooling over the jeep.

got the brake light on, decided to paint it flat "murder" black ... beter pics later of that, it came out pretty good

then tonight i got the windshield frame in primer, got all the bolt threads chased, got the one loop bolt that broke drilled out and those all installed. after a little sanding, she's totaly ready for paint. i pick up the hood tomorrow after work from the painter. i picked up glazing puddy to buff out my paint work, and the glass goes in monday at 3pm!! be here for the pics at 3:30!

 

Must be nice to be almost done. I used to work at a shop in Georgia rebuilding totalled F-150's, Excursions, Expeditions and the like. Sometimes I miss it. But definately not the part of chasing down all the electrical Gremlins. Great job though, Looking forward to seeing it done.
