First jeep and loving it
Hello every one. Nit sure where to start but this it the first jeep I have owned. And I'm loving ever second of it. I have always wanted a jeep ever sense I can remember so after selling my project car I desired it was time to get one. I searched high and low for the right one. And boy it is very hard to find them with a five speed manaul transmition. But I finally found one in good condition so I jumped on it. It does have high milage but it was very well taken care of. It runs like it is new off the show room floor. I have only owned it for about two weeks now. The only things that have been done to it is rancho shocks and a set of fog lights on the front. I'm not sure what where I am going to start with the mods but I do have some in mind. I don't have any pics as of right now but I will get some tomorrow

Check your local voc. tech school. See if they need vehicles to practice on. if you provided the body parts, and paint. Fenders and 1/4 panels are relatively cheap.
