Re: jeep rebuild 9

If ya tape a few dollars to the can does the stripper really start working? It doesn't try to get you to buy it expensive drinks does it?
 

Re: jeep rebuild 9

yeah,the best stripper i ever used was, oh wait, wrong stripper
 
Re: jeep rebuild 9

Ha! The can ought to come with lace wrapped around it and smell like cucumber- mellon lotion.
 
Re: 73 jeep rebuild 6

Looks like you're off to a great start. That's a clean looking frame.

I wish i was comfortable doing that
 
Looking good!!!! Keep us updated. Your body looks like mine did, I had to cut out all of the floors as well and weld in new, well worth the effort though my body is rock solid now. Now if I can just restraighted my front frame horns after hiting a concrete devider.
 
I did it myself, it turned out very well although the back floor warped quite a bit as it was welded in but no big deal to me.. just got a couple little humps in the floor is all. was gona post a pic of it but cant find it

Re: 73 jeep rebuild 10 soa kit

Nice work but for the booty-fab draglink. That thing spells disaster.
