I appreciate the offer, but I've got a garage full of tools. I am actually a big sports car guy, and recently found out you can have just as much fun playing in the dirt/mud/rocks, as you can going around a track at 130MPH. Its also a hell of a lot safer, and a hell of a lot cheaper. I was paying 500 a day for track days, plus 200 for lodging and upwards of 1000 in tires per weekend.

So I am currently converting my stable over to Jeeps.

Plans for the rig are a "Do everything" survival mobile, whether that be going 2000 miles on the highway, to logging roads, to crossing the desert, and all the way up to medium difficulty technical trails.

Pretty much a self sustaining rig, that with enough gas/oil can last me two+ years with no established civilization.

AKA - Zombie Rig

Currently in the works are...
Front+Rear Lockers
Front+Rear custom bumpers with Tire carrier
OBA
Full belly armor
4.5" Lift
32/33" Tires
SYE
Full length roof rack with two 5 Gal Jerry Cans/High Lift/ Axe and Shovel
Full tool kit on the interior
Appropriate armament
And probably some bushwacker flat flares
Maybe a paint job...

And more as I see fit.

No pics yet. I will take some during the lift install this weekend.
