Thanks, I still need to label the switches.
Haven't decided how I'm going to do that yet.

Might be able to find a rubber stamp kit and use Testor's model paint instead of the stamp-pad ink.

Paint and clear coat is coming off the jeep everywhere.
Needs to be freshened up:

Couple different shades of green



Decided on the Dark Hunter Green Gloss, Bottom is Gloss Black:


Now that the color is chosen need to start the prep work...

Well after a month of battling with the WJ it's up and running after a tune up with some 784 injectors and a Cold Air Intake, averaging 22MPG

Now that that's over it's back to the XJ.
Going to have to delay the XJ Paint Job till winter is over, so next task for it is a new set of radius arms. Planning to wrist the passenger side arm to keep the front from binding.

Well I put the final touches on WJ:

After talking with some friends that run ford radius arms I decided against wristing the arms. Working on designing a copy of a cage style.
