Haha thanks guys I hope I don't disappoint!! Just waiting on the body to arrive so I can get started! I'm gonna go off that pirate build, but I'm gonna do something a little different for the front fenders. I've actually seen this jeep in person and it's SICK! So hopefully my scaled version looks just as good

Your TJ will look killer. "thumbsup"

You don't have a link to that 1.1 jeep build do you ?

Thanks I hope it will! I'm gonna try and make it where I can run the red tj with 1.9s and switch bodies and run 2.2s but we will see how that turns out...

I'm impatiently waiting for my body, so I made up some rock lights...

Recieved my new body today, and its gonna take some serious work... There is a huge crack on the hood, and if it breaks it's takin half the hood and the grill with it... The front mounting point has been cut off so I'll have to come up with something for that. Hopefully I'll get a chance this weekend to start cutting the body up. Thanks for looking guys!

Started cuttin and never looked back!!
Started by cuttin the front fenders completely off:

Oops there goes the rear quarter!

More to come!!

 

[jeeper03]

Thanks guys! I got the rear all cut up, but I'm going out so this is all I got for the night.

Threw some 2.2s on there:

Got tired of body work, so I started laying out the cage...

 

[jeeper03]

Cage is all done, just needs paint and also the front fenders are almost done...
I'll post pics after dinner

 

[jeeper03]

Also started on the front fenders!
