Re: JP 40 - In Progress

There's a couple little rusty places, but no worries. I've treated all the places with an inhibitor to stop the spread till I have the space cleared in my shop to do a proper tear down and do all the repair.

Re: JP 40 - In Progress

Friend of mines family runs a heavy equipment fab shop and made these for me this morning. This afternoon he'll be cutting the plates and bending the bar for my light bar. We'll be making some extras too if anyone is interesting in buying them. https://scontent-dfw5-2.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.15752-9/10619...

Re: JP 40 - In Progress

Well, picked up rear brakes, and my new gas tank came in so I'll be busy Saturday morning. Trying to decide what the next thing I should do is. Already have AC coming. Thinking get the lights for the lightbar maybe and replacement bulbs for my bumper lights.

JP 40 - In Progress

Hi everyone. So as I posted in my introduction I have recently acquired a 1994 Sahara. It's got all the correct interior and it's the champagne color so close enough for me until it actually needs a repaint. Why #40? Because I got it for my 40th birthday (well today is my actual birthday). So, the f...
