Default 4gottin rotten

New to posting pics. I tried image shack, but that just posted tiny thumbnails.

This Jeep has been around the neighborhood for years. I've always wanted it and now for the right price it is. Apparently it runs, but needs a engine gasket kit cause it leaks everywhere. I tore the seats out due to the fact the cats have made it their winter hideout and bright green moss growing on the front passenger seat (Looks cool just not in the right place). Not really sure what to due with the color. The whole jeep has a roll on bed liner that's peeling in places and needs some attention.

I'll post more pics as I continue.

Named it 4gotten Rotten because it's a 4cylinder that's been forgotten and is rotten

Did some digging and found a few pics of my Jeep before I owned it. These are before the roof was cut to remove, and a few other mods..

Jeep parts are hard to come bye here in Pocatello Idaho. LJC has a bunch of jeeps but they are newer models. They have a few others around town but most of them are so picked apart finding what you need is next to impossible. I however did find an untouched one today, lucky me. P.S. it's infested with mice.

The one thing is does not have that i need is a driver side headlight door, and blinker.

Got some new used seats.

The carpet was filthy, I had to pressure wash and used about a galling of carpet cleaner.

New used door panels. I also fixed all the seatbelts and rear hatch. Now I can open from the outside.

Because the top comes off nothing lines up so I had to spray paint black where the carpet ends, gives it s cleaner look. Where all the plastic molding would generally go. Not really sure that matters from the pics but in person in looks kind of better.
