    Got the big glass in, wow it went in really easy, amazing when the glass is the right size.

    Just for giggles, what rattle can paint (brand/color) did you use?
    Jeep looks very presentable in any event and the color chosen "looks retro"; that turquoise-aqua is very 1950s...

    Were the original rims (the ones it came with) actually original? I like those better ;)

    Rust-Oleum 2x seaside blue.

    I liked the original wheels but it was hard to find radials that fit the look I wanted.

    Oh dang. I think I used about 18 cans. But I used it under the tub, in the tub and on the tub. I used Rustoleum Tractor Enamel in Kubota Orange.

    Thanks to Garage Gnome for the speedometers, I was able to piece together a pretty nice one out of the two.
