Got bored so I made one of these in like 30 minutes. Not the best, but not to bad considering all I had was a little bit of plywood and a hand saw. Now I just gotta put some carpet on it.

Detailed the interior. The insides are all shiny and smells good too.

Note to self (and anyone else who may be interested): Don't use your 5 H.P. Shop-Vac on the headliner.

Anybody know a good technique for re-attaching the ceiling fabric?

How much is hanging down? You might be better off in the long run by just redoing it. It's pretty easy and you can choose whatever color/design you want

Replaced some broken interior pieces, better bucket seats and a new ignition switch. Love it when my grandsons help.

Today, I put a wheelskins steering wheel wrap on. Then I replaced the factory fog lights. Tried to put a new fog light switch in, but it was defective already. I also put in a new door catch pin on the driver's door and a new drive belt. Yesterday I fixed all of the dents. I have a set of rotors and pads, but that might have to wait untill tomorrow. Last week I put TJ wheels and new tires on it. I have only had it for a little over a week, so I am still in the tinkering stage.
