Got some new parts today

- Three Hella 8" 800 Rally lights
- Two IPF 968 6" Driving Lights
- Some anti theft locks for the lights
- Four IPF light covers
- Two Warns chrome toe hooks
- New Hella 110 db horns
- Hanson rear lower panel armor
- Corebeau seatbelt pads

 

Finally got the hood louvers aligned, now it was time to do some drilling and and cutting before the the hood was getting painted.




When it came to cut out the holes in the hood, I decided to only make some drainage holes at the bottom. In Norway it doesn't get terrible hot and can be pertty rainy and the winters can be a biatcch. But it wasn't a real alternativ not to make holes either since that would cause water pooling under the vents. All edges and drill holes were polished and zink coated.

 

Grinding and priming the doors and the body

 

Went by Mr. Tailor and he is doing a an excellent job on the seats
Seats will be built up again and get new covers in fake leather an textile.

 

Then it was time for the beast to get a new paint job. 4 layers of color and 4 layers of clear coating




Hood and trunk door getting ready:


And it turned out pretty sweeeet




And NO, this is not the new water based, environmental friendly shiiiiiit paint.. this is bullet proof stuff


And at the end the doors got their spray:

 

Does anybody know of a company that sell's decent 2nd hand axles? I'am looking for a bolt on front and rear with 4.10 gears

 

Awesome build!! Those seats look fantastic, was that very expensive to have them recovered?

 

Thanks Knever3 I paid about 600$ for new seats, back and front, new carpet and new recovering of the inside door panels with the Jeep logo embroidered on the front door panels. So I think it was a pretty good deal

 

Can you post more pictures of the seats and door panels for us please? Thanks again!

 

Will do knever3 I'll get the rest of the panels and backseat on Wednsday, so I'll make some good pic's then

 

But in the mean time...
