It started as a low milage rust bucket. After a year of parts hunting,work and alot of allowance we are finally finished. ( As finished as a Jeep ever is ) We did a 2" lift and TJ flares to fit 33x12.50 Pro Comp MTs. Lined the inside and after ALOT of body work sprayed the body Sublime Green with all hinges and trim flat black.

Very nice!
 
Man I wish the CJ-7 I drove in high school looked that nice. Solid work.
 
Looks good man.
From experience I can tell you, the hard top is protection only from the elements. Go ahead and run some tube to the front to protect her noggin.
 
Thanks guys. We put a lot of time in it. As for the front hoop we added a YJ windseild frame and roll bar. We had to replace them any way so we used YJ parts to get a little more protection for now.
 
Sweet man! Looks good. I like the paint. You guys did a great job on it. :burnout:

Good, Something is better than nothing, but do replace that with a real cage sometime soon. I've seen those factory YJ/TJ design "Rollcage" fold like paper.

Gorgeous Jeep!

Thats damn impressive. My hats off to you.
 
Good luck! One Jeep is enough, I can't imagine supporting 3 of them :eek:

LOL! I told them I would do the work but they have to buy their own parts. Its working out OK so far.
 
I love the color.
You will NEVEr lose it in the parking lot.

Thanks. She will also never be able to say " That wasnt my Jeep it must have been someone else "
