jeeper's NB jeep build

Right now I'm using a mapp gas torch and safety silv45. I guess it's time to to step up an try something new so I can get the better scale look. As this is the one complaint I always get about it.
 
Looks damn good! Love the 1:1 as well

Thanks I try pretty hard to make it look nice, I think its time for a new paint job!
As for the 1:1... It needs MAJOR help! Lol it's currently down getting a 4.0L swapped in place of the blown 2.4L! Also working on some one ton axles (hp60 and sterling 10.25) and 37s

As of now specs on it are:
4.0L(soon)
Ax15(soon)
Dana 30/35 4.10s open
15x8 trail ready beadlocks
33x12.5 KM2s
2.5" rough country lift
UCF extra clearance skid plate

should make the rear corner gaurds diamond plate or flat black my 2 cents
awesome attention to detail though. "thumbsup"

Thanks I'm gonna remake my rear corners, I want them to be a little less comp cut, but they will be body matched like my 1:1. It helps keep a bit of a sleeper look to it! Lol
 
lol, sleeper with a comp cut yer funny.

Lol I meant its color marched to look like there is less done than what all is actually done. It's currently comp cut, but I'm gonna try something like this:

Very close to a comp cut but to someone who doesn't kno jeeps may not notice other than a lifted jeep...
 
that's pretty cool lookin too. I am gonna try my look with anew bright jeep myself here if all goes well with the transaction. Mines gonna have a twist though that I haven't seen here yet or heard of and hopefully turns out as good as I think it will in my noggin. I'd say the twist but want to try it first before braggin. lmao
I did somethin like the orange rig with my 1:1 72 jeepster commando (I wish I never sold :( )

Now just gotta get some magnets to attach the top and then it's time to just enjoy it!
 
To make it even more like the 1:1 you could always spray paint the wheels black "thumbsup" I did that on my stock honcho wheels and it looks SO much better now. Other than that it looks really close to the 1:1, good job. Cheers mate 8)
