Well, it has been a while.

It has been slow going, waiting on parts, but I have gotten some stuff done.

I got the rear corners mounted.

Also, got the rocker metal cut and mounted. Will be picking them up from the powder coating today.

Also, got the a bunch of stuff primed yesterday, will do the tub this weekend, more than likely.

Very cool. I could really like having a Jeep like that for running around the country roads and 2 tracks.

Keep up the good work.

Come East youngman, come East. Get out of your local area.

And we need to go shooting. I need someone to crank the handle on manual thrower. cool

Or get your Dad to teach this lefthanded person to shoot better.

Great thread. That pick of your black flattie looks a little like the Rubicon trail. Where were you when it was taken?

That was the Rubicon. We did it every year, at least once from 1983-2004.

Love that trail. Fun, a little hard in spots, and beautiful.

Well, between work and getting ready for hunting season, haven't had much time to work on the Jeep. Well, today afforded me some time to try my hand at applying some color to it.

Going to have to do some color sanding and work on my technique a little bit, but I think it is going to look pretty good.

Nice color.
You start in the unseen place to get the technique down then move outside.

Hunting is almost here.

Hence the reason I started with the fenders and dash...easy to sand and start over.
