Project-JK VIDEO : VENGEANCE – A Badass 2-Door JK Worthy of its Name
 
It’s not everyday that you meet a guy like Ken Offerbeck. Better known by his screen name HappyCurmudgeon, he was the kind of guy who was committed to helping others, someone that everyone loved and was someone who helped make JK-Forum what it is today. Cindy and I have always considered ourselves lucky to know him as a personal friend and when it became clear that he was losing his battle with cancer, we knew we had to step in and help him to fulfill a dream of his – to provide for his daughter long after he was gone.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leDziLN42kY December 18, 2012 will mark exactly one year to the day when we bought Ken's 2-Door Jeep JK Wrangler from him and began its year long transformation, turning silver into gold and creating the beast known as, VENGEANCE!! Bidding on this badass, stretched out 2-door JK will begin on Tuesday, December 11, 2012 and will be sold on Tuesday, December 18, 2012 to the highest bidder. A link to the auction will be posted as soon as it's available.

Let VENGEANCE be Yours!!

What a great tribute to an awesome man. Thanks to all. Great job.

Awesome Video! I did not know Ken except through his last posts on the forum when I first became a member. Cancer took my father "Ken" July 10, 2012 but it will never take away the memories I have of him and of who he was. Vengeance has been transformed, but will always remind those who who knew him, what type of son, husband, father and friend he truly was. Rest in Peace Ken!!!!

Amazing job! But what really warms the heart is not the machine, but the people that are standing by it... and and by their friend.

I really hope the auction raises a lot of money.... best of luck!

I think it's really great what you guys are doing. No one should have to deal with cancer. I wish I could have met him he was right in buffalo with me. Hopefully you raise a lot of money for his daughter. Good things happen to good people

Truly amazing. I have so much respect for what you have done here. Cancer is a horrible disease that also took someone very special away from me. I applaud you for your efforts in helping out Ken's family.
And the jeep build is incredible.

Ken's spirit and soul
 
Through this forum and it's members thanks to Cindy and Eddie Oh, Mel of (Off Road Evolution) and all associated with the transformation of Ken's Jk to the now outstanding VENGEANCE, the Ken Offerbeck stretched 2-door JK build.

The very essences of Ken's spirit and who he was, will never die.

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

Poem By Mary Frye

I hope Vengeance does very well at the auction block and may God bless all involved in making Ken's dream a reality.
