This makes me soooooooo happy my jeep isn't rusted! Great work!

Cool stuff! All that work, it makes you wonder how the original movie cars were decided on. Why did some Jeeps get a light bar shortened and the tabs cut off, while another got a plate welded on with 4 search lights? Given that the studio's seem to be so cheap when it comes to building movie cars, w...

The M60 is a nice touch!

Awesome job with the paint!

When I purchased the Jeep it had no muffler or converter. I replaced the exhaust system to pass NC emissions and quiet it down. Of course, that's when I heard the noise coming out of the Transfer Case....

The winch came in and I installed it. Kinda pissed it's been painted grey when it should be black and it was shown as being black. IMG_4108.JPG IMG_4111.JPG IMG_4112.JPG IMG_4114.JPG It works too!

Great progress so far

The plan is to build custom tow hooks like the movie JP18 had. I'll probably make larger front holes to accommodate D Rings if needed.
