I have taken the rims off the old tires, but have not put them on my tires yet due to the chipping.

Weird, did you rough that edge up pretty well? Maybe its not getting good adhesion.

The panels will have to be repainted and the handles are missing, but still im glad i found the pockets.
The doors were just repainted by the owner but they painted them a darker shade, so i'll have to also repaint them the correct color

I have also got most of the jeep body primmed, keep trying to paint but the weather won't permit!

I have started to paint the sides! I was able to fit my Jeep in the garage, but am only able to paint one side at a time. I have finished the Driver Side and am working on the Passanger side today.

The other side went just as well, i also got one of the doors done, it looks awesome! I'll have pictures up soon. I had the tailgate done also but when i went done to look at it when it was finished it had bubble marks all over it, I think I used to warm of a reducer, so i had to sand it back down and start over.
