THAT is cool! I love it! Update - I have sold 2, there are 3 remaining.

NOS condition. I came into these thru an OEM NOS parts lot purchase. I have 5 of them that I will sell. First 5 folks who send me a PM will get them. $20 shipped to any USA address. PayPal “Friends and Family” payment works best, but I also do Venmo and I’m old fashioned enough to say I’d be OK to take a check from you too. I’ll ship them once I get your payment. One per person Thanks - Brent

Building some shelves to store Jeep parts. What better to use for the run to the lumberyard…

I should also note that yesterday was my Blue truck’s production date. How would you like to be put to work on your birthday!?!?

Productive day today.

Looking here first to see if anyone has an OEM seat cover in good usable shape they would like to sell? Not interested in vinyl, I’d like to get a fabric one. Don’t need the seat frame or foam. Shipping to Wisconsin. Thanks!

@Dandxj I have one of these that I was going to toss for scrap but pulled aside for you. PM me if you are still needing it.

If I didn’t get your attention initially, maybe I have it now?

I’m looking for anyone who has some of the OEM Mud Flaps and is looking to sell them outright or trade to complete a set like I am. Specifically, I am looking for a front passenger side AMC LOGO Jeep rubber mud flap to complete a set. I have surplus used front driver side AMC LOGO Jeep mud flaps to trade. I also have plenty of the Mopar years plastic Jeep mud flaps to trade as well. For these I’ve got an extra front passenger side currently. PM me with what you’ve got!

I have a feeling that offers like this will keep going up as the years keep going too!

I did need help to get the truss arches up on their columns. Aside from that my helpers were ever present for their encouragement while I did the rest of the work myself with scaffolding, ladders and plenty of clamps.

The Tin Shed was mostly done at this point, but Mother Nature had other plans. I had initially planned to anchor the shed to the ground with earth augers at each corner and vertical tie down straps to hold tight to them. If you look at some of the photos you’ll see them in the corners. These were tested late in the fall of 2022 and they did their job. We had a large rain/wind storm prior to winter setting in and they held the building down, but allowed it to slide laterally about 2’ on the concrete blocks. It took me a day of tugging with tow straps at each corner of the building to pull it back in line on the blocks but I eventually got it. I kept the earth augers in place and added in some external chains and binders to better handle the lateral loads. Now it can’t go anywhere. In 2023 I have a few more things to wrap up with the building, but it is essentially complete. Time will tell how long I actually need it to fill the stop-gap until I build the shop I want, but it serves the purpose for now.

The eave lights were one of the last items to finish off after the doors were completed. Next I added some indoor LED lighting and outlets. I also built a few heavy duty shelves.

The driveway work came next and I followed up with smoothing out the topsoil against the fill as well. The building is sold with no front garage doors so I opted to build some doors of my own from some lesser quality rough sawn oak I had. They work, but boy they are HEAVY!
