Yeah, that's kind of what I figured, once it's on the road and I get the lift in it people will be more interested, which makes sense haha. Also I decided even if no one looks at it at all I want to have it for my self, it's nice to have all the pictures of what I did and when I did it all in the same place and organized like this.

 

The quality is fine. I threw them on my roof and didn't want to worry about replacing an expensive light every time I bash them. As far as the brightness I couldn't say because I converted mine to HID

 

Oh nice, that's actually a really good idea!

 

i like ur XJ..... and i like the way ur doing the rockers....... i gottah do mine but i need a dry place to do it lol

 

Haha yeah, I'm lucky enough to have a garage with a lift, it makes things super easy. Also I've been thinking posting how I did the rockers and all the pics in the fabrication section, I haven't seen anyone else build them the way I did, and they're super sturdy.

 

Well I got some pics of the rockers today, I'll some body filler and hopefully primer on them tomorrow, then I can put the interior back in and send it off to the mechanic finally! sorry for the crappy pics, all I had was my Ipod...

 

Got almost all the body work done today, just have a couple more dents that have to be pulled out before I can body filler them...











Took some more pics with a better camera:

 

Put the lights on to see how they look, not totally in love with them, what do you guys think?

 

Just scored a set of 31x10.5x15 bfg all terrain's for $50 from a friend, They're a little weather cracked but not bad...

All I have is the pic he sent me for now:

 

So, it turns out the tires I was going to by ended up being no good, but on a good not I got the interior back in!! Also sorry about the crappy photos, I was in a hurry.

 

So I got it painted with some cheap single stage for now, because I sent it off to the mechanic tonight. Hopefully I'll have it back by the end of next week then on the road not to long after that! I'll post some pics in a few minutes.

 

Here are some pics of it painted. Sorry again about the crappy pics.

 

Well I have a bunch of pictures, but I can't upload them for some reason, I got one of it finished to work. Let me know if you want me to try to figure it out and get the pics up.

 

IT RUNS!!!!! So I just got a call from the mechanic and it turns out someone had put the wrong computer in it, so we got the right one and ITS ALIVE!!! Now it just needs an alternator, hopefully I can pick it up tonight!

 

Well its finally on the road, after almost 2 years... now I'm trying to decide if I want to put the 3.5" lift in it now or wait until I can afford a 4.5" lift...
