Who's working on an explorer near Tulsa? I would LOVE to help with the bubble roof, as I'll be needing one very soon as well.

Oklahoma is now the hub of all things JP Jeep :)

I'm 'hearing' a JP Explorer is being done in Edmond, OK as well.

Yep, I'm picking it up today around 4. It's a White 1995 S Rio Grande Soft Top with 109,000. It's in excellent shape (very, very, very minimal rust). I'll be heading to the OKC Pull-Apart in the next few days to scavenge parts. I'll be posting pictures of it in the next few days on my JP Jeeps thread. I've decided to go with a high number 42. I'm not 100% sure what "style" of JP jeep I'll do, but I'm really excited. Now that I'm an adult, I can make my childhood dream come true! :D

Congratz on getting the Jeep. Looking forward to the pics. When you get done we'll have to get everyone together again and see just how many Jeeps and Explorers we can get together in one place. Maybe we could even get KindaGuitarded to come in from KC for that one.

Don't bother with the Pull-A-Part south of downtown....they had no Wranglers at all so its not worth the walk around the yard

Place on Shields and SW 89th (if I recall correctly) has some great shells for pulling apart, it's where I got my rollbar from.

Man, I just called all of the Salvage Yards that I could find in the Oklahoma City area, and none of them have any YJs... this is going to be a tough build.
