Car looks like crap...no just messin with ya. It looks REALLY sharp..the color really pops. +13 to what everyone said, the rear wheel setup isnt super pretty. Instead of dealing with the rear why not search for a different offset wheel ?
Any pics of the interior ? I tried the link but it didnt work..maybe its broken ? or maybe its me...
Anyhow...Nice indeed!

+1 on fixing the rear wheels, either shorten the 9" or get different offset rims. I definitely wouldn't put an 8" in there, the 9" rear is a great rear end.
The paint and details look great. The painted rear bumper is nice subtle touch... looks good. I also like the oil cooler... I kind of want to put one on my car for the hell of it

Look into a mid 90s Explorer 8.8. Very popular axle for Jeeps cause they are narrow, (like 65" hub to hub). Also a very strong axle with disc brakes as another plus. Around here they're only $150 in the yards. Most are 3.55s.
