Looks cool. I've always had a soft spot for Jeeps too for some odd reason.
You should make it a perfect Zombie apocalypse daily driver vehicle.  Or would that be your motor bike?

I think all guys want a jeep because we want to look like this guy:
Or this guy:
I've also had multiple girls tell me a guy in a Jeep is automatically better looking.
Chicks and cars and the third world war...

Looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
I really enjoyed the jeep, but in the end I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with it.

All depends on what you want to spend, your use and your quality needs. Can go from a few hundred to $3000-$4000.
All based on stuff like shocks, long arm kit vs. short arm kit, replacing parts with lift specific parts vs. keeping stock parts.

I'm ashamed to admit my wife knows way more about cars than I do.
I had to Google most of what you wrote to understand what you were talking about.
"Spray the entire tub"? You're putting a freaking bath in there?
I've always admired your passion for cars and think this sounds like lots of fun.
TD;DR - Not a car guy, but will still looking forward to updates.

I drove one of these around one summer, I was exceptionally cool.
It was wicked, I #### kicked that CJ and it never once gave up or complained.

Been tinkering with this for about 4 years. Never driven it on the road to be honest (not street legal). Still need better brakes, windshield wipers and a few other things before it's good to go.
It's hilariously fast though. Sounds like a stock car.
Love jeeps.

There's that awesome dark red Jeep color... Almost kinda reminds me of Flames red. I love that color.
If I win the lottery...
"Sleeper" GTL (GTR engine in TL mod for laughs)
Red head Testarossa
Red Jeep Wrangler for driving over mother nature's worst.
Misc who cares exotic car...
 I have weird tastes in cars...

Well we know one thing. It's a guarantee this rebuild will be done before the Oilers.
