I've been lazy at updating this thread again.. But, I have been less lazy working on the truck! Here's me fixing my non-adjusted drums on the XJ, while the MJ looks on in jealousy.
Now me and my newly made friend start to get the floor fixed. He just came over to buy some Jeep parts and much bull$#!&ting later, now he's helping me put my floor in. (Gotta love fellow Jeepers!) Driver's side, not too bad. Passenger side is a bit worse..
Now to acquire some sheet metal. Hmm, Hey Dad, can I borrow the roof from you old Buick out back? (Note, the Buick's hood was already taken to help repair the cargo area floor in the aforementioned XJ)
The victim..
First cut (only mild fire on inside of car..)
Scalping complete.. "One dies so another shall live" - somebody wise
Now with the sheet metal in hand, the real work begins!
