| Mongo's Jeep TJ
After life as a Bronco, I'm gonna give Mongo a make-over. I love Jeeps and have decided to do a Jeep build up. Picked up a Rubicon body and started hacking away. No fender flares for me. The rollcage for the Bronco body fit perfectly after lowering it a little bit. I put on some Pro-Line rims to see how they looked, and I like the black look. Don't know for sure what I'll run for wheels yet, though. Haven't decided on color yet either. Let me know what you think so far.

| I've actually thought of it. I remember this TJ build Four Wheeler did from quite a while ago. Didn't they turn that TJ into a Brute? I'll have to do some research. I think it would look cool with the black done the same way on TealJ.

So I've decided to go with teal. It will be inspired by Teal-J but it will not be a replica of it. Now I just gotta find some time to get her painted. Thanks 2JSC for the inspiration.

Looks good so far. I like the odd colors they tend to break up all the Red's Blacks and Blues. But for the record "Gay Jade" that was freakin funny..... |

Yes, that project is now Brute. Unfortunately it is still Teal. I love all Jeeps, but that color is hideous.
