Hi everyone
For a while I have been following your interesting topics in this wonderful forum and I have been inspired to build my project and have called it Sand Scorpion
The project is in its infancy and any comment that benefits me or criticism is welcome

I bought this car a year ago and I work on it
I finished the basic mechanical parts and now work on the following plan

The way you're chopping your rig is the exact way I plan to do my next one. Keeping the door frames and such while opening the roof and back, a poor man's JKU honestly.

Subbed for sure, excited to see where you're headed.

I am not sure what your total light arrangement will be, but with those LEDs if you keep a functional signal, you will need to run LEDs on the front and get an LED flasher or run a resistor on the tail light.

Always like the look of chopped xj's. It looks great and I'm excited to see how this one turns out!
