Hey and thanks!

here's a couple more, waiting on some more money to get here but next comes the decals. Haven't figured out what number I"m gonna run.

Biggest issues so far were replacing the rear axle and rebuilding the transfer case :x

but it's getting there!

Let us know how it goes, we could put together a southeastern JP jeep Get together.

the handles were pretty oxidized when i got it, so i had the painters just shoot'em while I get money together to order new ones from quadratec.
as far as the number I'm trying to figure out if i wanna do another 18 or a number someone hasn't done in the twenties range

Do something else. Yes, 18 is popular but variety is what will make this more fun. I've got my Mini-Jeep #15 and that's the number I plan on when I get my own full-sized Jeep.

Ok guys, update. Just ordered a screen accurate rear seat to replace my non-existant rear. Should be here in a few days off ebay. I' may need to re-dye it, but it's all good.
