Wow. It looks sick. Can't wait to see some pics of it flexing.

Well its been a while since I have posted anything. Well as we all know sometimes life gets in the way of toys and that is what has happened to me. Everything was going smoothly on the build then we decided to remodel a bathroom which turned into a 2 bathroom gut down to studs and floor joist. Lets just say it got expensive. Luckily I did all work myself except drywall and saved some money. I had just bought another mj to rob the bed and a few other goodies but ended up selling it to another member on here Alexia (great guy). I also ended up selling my Rubicon wheels and tires and regreted it as soon as the guy left. Well I finally found a pretty good deal on some more Moab wheels so I picked them up. Oh yeah I got 5 this time. I hope to be picking up another Comanche soon for a bed. I'm hopefully back on track.

Why don't you take it to a scrap metal yard and make a couple bucks off it.

Looking good.

Yeah I found a sweet deal on a 97 called on it while I was at work and it was gone by the time I got off work the next day. Just gonna keep my eyes open for another sweet deal.

Alex you going to come down and help me do my conversion when I get my 97 and up cherokee. You should be a pro by then.

Sweet deal on the xj. If you find anymore you need to hook me up. I can't find any deals like that.

What are the steps I need take to get my 87 Comanche running again. I replaced the battery and put some fuel in it and tried to crank it. The jeep has been sitting for a couple of years. What are some ideas I need to to try.

Found these on Craigslist and had to pick them up. Lets just say I got a smoking deal on the lights.Picked them up for the brushguard I don't even have yet.

Just got back with wheels and tires. Couldn't resist. What a difference wheels and tires make. A little motivation now.

New wheels and tires(tires are temporary)for the comanche. Picking them up Saturday.

Very nice. I love the Rubicon wheels. Can't wait for the build.

Got some work done today the mj. Got fenders off and roll bar removed and sold. Also picked up a toolbox for $50.00. Little pieces of the big puzzle.

My neighbor came over to check out the new project and brought me some nice motor mounts that his son never used on his Comanche.

I'm definitely not leaving it on this project. I'm using an ARB bumper. I probably going hang on to it to use somewhere down the road on another project.

I haven't decided what I want to do with the brushguard yet. Y'all will be first to know.

Jacksonville, AL.

Gaucho your jeep looks good .Gotta love those ARB bumpers. I had one on my 98 cherokee. Well I got the Comanche home today and started on it right away. Pulled the interior and found dirt under carpet but no rust. I am very happy. One less thing I have to worry about. Here are some pictures.

Haha. That's funny. Thanks man.

I have been lurking on this board for a while and searching for a worthy candidate to start building. Well the search is over. I found a 1987 Jeep Comanche Chief 4.0, 5spd, short box. Its not perfect by any means. Box has some major dents. Both front fenders , header, and grill are shot. Not worried about front going to do 97+ front end conversion. Inspiration for this build is H3RESQ Comanche. This will be weekend driver/ toy. This is not my first rodeo on building jeeps. I have had cj2a,m38a1, stretched cj5,xj, tj, and a zj all built. Plans so far. I'm sure they will be changing.
