Thanks, Cyrix! I'm going to need to flip the orientation of the solenoid and gear shift, but hopefully it isn't too difficult.

Where in SoCal are you located? Currently I'm in SD for school but when I'm back home I'm in Bakersfield.

I'm in the LA area. After I finish, you're definitely welcome to drop by and take a look at the Jeep whenever you drive home.

As far as progress on the Jeep, I ordered the paint and associated supplies last week. I was hoping that they would come this week so I could paint this weekend, but they haven't arrived yet. May just do some more prep work and paint next weekend. We'll see though.

Almost there. Paint isn't 100% so I'll have to do some touch-ups, but I'm pretty happy with it overall. Sorry about the poor lighting. I'll have better pics as I get her more done.

TCPGlobal.com from the post here.

I got waaaay too much paint though. Got a gallon of LJ1 and I think I used maybe a third of it. Paint goes a long way when you are spraying.
