new wheels on! top is slowly getting on too. We are grappling with reassembling the locking mechanism with the half doors... its been 3 trips to the jeep dealer so far for parts and we still can't get the lock assembly properly installed, but we are trying!

Well guys, it finally has some semblance of being finished! It looks presentable but there is still so much more to do. Of course, pictures.

I think the thing that sets this off for me is the AT KO2's on there. Really makes everything look "updated," as it were. Nice work!

Thank you guys. Yes I was very particular about matching the tires to the current 'updated' offering from BFGoodrich.
I took a couple more pictures yesterday.

That is actually very impressive. I never thought that a Jurassic TJ would come out looking that great. I'm still in awe. :) Any plans for a whip antenna?

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! I actually do have the whip antenna and the mounting hardware, just have to actually install it. I'll be scared to drill thru the body!
