well it has been a while since i have updated my build thread but work has continued, i finished up the engine swap with the hardest part being wiring up the rear tail lights. After I wired it up i have been working on it for a while. and after adding some rock rails I finally took it out

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The only thing i really had problems with was the gearing was a little to high so crawling was difficult the clutch driving was a little hard. it also got mighty warm in the cab. the jeep did very well over all. so it was a good run. :D

...hardest part being wiring up the rear tail lights.

 

What did you end up doing for the tails?

Ok. i'm picking this thread back up.

I love the army green. i read this thread a long time ago and that color was stuck in my head so today i started the process and sanded and painted my hood today. I never actually read your whole thread but i really like what you've done to your "Joop". I hate to seem like i'm stealing your ideas but i came up with them before i saw ur thread. i'm planning rusty's offroad fender flares and rusty's 6.5 inch long arm kit :idea: i promise not to steal too much.
