Unless that's BLM land and an "official" barricade, that was built by a dick.

Oh well it happens?
I did make it through some of that pucker stuff without breaking anything however................... Well my new stereo ant got broken with some new pin stripes oh well................ not to bad I rekon?

My buddies were telling me about the cleanup crew that came by. Very cool that you helped out. Let me know next time they do it and I will help out as well!

Thanks Tbone. It's pretty much stock. The previous owner added the cleats on the box which I kind of like and they suit the period. They snag your clothing though!

Well... did something to the YJ, but it's a quick cheap trick and early XJs have the same steering wheels. So yup.

Ugly

Pop the emblem off, hit it with wet 1500, then a bit of clear.

I'm changing the interior to black, so dye the pad, glue the emblem back on, much better!

Looks damn good for a rattle can. Or maybe I'm just a **** painter... Either way, looks great!

Took off the crappy triple air horns I had and installed a much larger single air horn with a new compressor. MUCH better. Now it is way louder, like an air horn should be. It's so tempting to scare pedestrians with it but I just don't have that A-hole gene and so I don't pull those kind of stunts.
