AMAZING photos man. Love the jeep STILL. I also haven't gotten around to doing my rear 1/4s since I asked you about them way back when. They're progressively getting worse.

I have to say I'm impressed.
The Xj is probably the finest I've seen and it's put into good use, admirable!
Please continue posting, very inspirational to follow this one.

Life's been getting in the way of making more progress on mine...too many irons in the fire. So, I get to wheel vicariously through you...
