John, your car is awesome. Those stripes make the car.

Jeff and Clint, you boys rock. That was a huge job to be completed that fast.

Chris, can't wait to see the finished product.

I was surprised it went as fast as it did. No snags, a little bit of rework when we wrapped the chain around some cables and had to juggles stuff between jackstands, and only 1 busted knuckle haha. Really I was just doing this to get out of painting at my friends house back home lol.

Would still be scratching my head without Crent's help.

I don't blame you on that one. Would rather spend a greasy weekend than a paint spattered one.

I am still shocked at the fact that we didn't break 1 single bolt and that when I started it up only 1 fluid gushed out because I forgot to tighten a hose clamp on one of the transmission cooler lines. Whoops.

Yeah I'm amazed about the bolts, seems to be a jeep thing of late haha. I was really thinking one of those exhaust flange bolts was gonna snap at some point, specially when they started screaming during removal. Avoided any electrical hiccups too!

Not like you didn't already cover the floor with that stuff.

These are just a few pics of what I have found so far. The car is going is for sandblasting in a few months. The weather isnt very cooperative right now and no one local has an indoor booth.
It looks like the back of the b pillar needs some work and a hole in the rear fender well.
