Wow, You have done a lot to your Jeep, I'm loving this build.
Keep up the great work.

Default Time for a new look

This week I'm going through the pita process of getting my XJ ready for paint.
Today I'll start by folding the rear and lining up the doors. I'm not doing any body work whatsoever because there's no point pulling dents if I'm gonna make new ones

So I got everything together like said it would a waste to do any bodywork lol

I painted the hood the other day just to see how it would come out and I think it looks like a pumpkin lol so I'm gonna mix some red in there to darken it.

I can't really read the name of the paint or the brand. Since I, unlike yourself, like that color orange can you post the actual color and brand. It seems to have a stock number but that is way too small for these old eyes Dan.
