Because today was early release at school and lunch was before 11:00, my younger brother and I went to a local restaurant owned by a family friend. She had her JK Rubicon on the snowbank, so I had to climb it higher with my MJ. 

 

Oh, and I installed my tonneau cover. I’m happy with the fit and finish considering it was $150 on Amazon.

It was more impressive when I did it. Pictures don’t do it justice.

What brand is the cover? Got a part number? Maybe a couple more pictures.

I’ll get more info on it in the next couple of days. It is a North Mountain tonneau cover for a 1994ish Ranger.

Including purchasing the truck and two parts Cherokees I have about $6,000 in parts. 

On top of the $6,000 I have:

$500 in tires

$200 in axles and lift

$100 in sandpaper, buffing compound, black plastic restorer, etc. 

$250 in paint (donated by a local business)

$200 in wheels (I got for free, it cost $200 at the local junkyard for aluminum wheels)

$10,500 for my labor (let’s say it is $15 an hour, which is cheap for a restoration shop, but I’m no pro)(I have about at minimum 100 7 hour days)

$8,500 for my dad’s labor (rounded down)(he has at least 35 7 hour days at $35 an hour, as that is what he charges at his restoration shop)

$1,000 for sandblasting that a professional shop did. 

 

A grand total of $27,250.
