The Jurassic Build 08-17-20

ooooh..I have an entire Civic that is like that.

 

It should come off with a little elbow grease and perhaps clay barring works pretty good in removing overspray if it isn't too heavy.

 

I had some fun today putting the red paint and JP18~! it's officially a JP18! Wahoo! IT was so fun unmasking the darned thing! Just waiting for a master cylinder and the wheels n tires. Tomorrow I'll put the large Jurassic Park decal on the doors, oh, waiting on door parts too You know it only took me 6 months to do a complete restoration~ something wrong with me?

 

My tires came in! I have a little brake work to do, but I should have the JP18 on the ground pretty soon, however, the weather is going to be cold n crappy for a while I can remove those silly front wheel spacers now However, for fun I may just see how it looks with and without out them. It didn't seem to mess with the steering when I drove it home in August, a few months ago

 

Dne, how do you post pictures? through the site?

 

Hi Tyler, I use Postimages it's a free picture server~ Just seems work well as I belong to soooo many forums!

 

okay, i just have issues because this is a school issued computer, so your images are blocked, as are many others. i was just curious.

 

I've never heard any complaints, please let me know if when you're home that you can see them!!!
I posted this picture through the Upload on the site, do you see this one? if so I'll have to start using it.

 

no, if you find it easier and it takes less time to do it elsewhere, fell free to. i am home now, and can see them.

 

I'm confused(which doesn't take much), you can see all the pictures now? so you can go back to my first post and see the pictures? ?

 

i was on a different computer. what i mean is that you don't need to use the site itself, even if that's the only way i can see tham. whatever works for you is fine.
another member here, Jw60, uses flickr, and they show up fine. i really don't mean to complicate your life, i was just curious.

 

Still have fog lights to wire, finish the winch, and omg, drive it!!

This JP18 is really a beautiful work, time, knowledge, money invested... The result is beyond the words.

 

That's the nicest truest statement Alan!

 

I was thinking of this build yesterday while sitting in this line. It would be awesome to rent for these drive thru exhibits.

We took the jp18 out for a little ride, then put on our Jurassic park outfits, but no dinosaurs

 

Hi gang! A few weeks ago, we were out in the JP18 and a nice looking SUV followed us into our driveway. A super nice young fella asked if he could rent/ borrow my YJ for a picture with his family for an annual picture. In short, I agreed to meet him and his family at the larger than life park next to us (AD Dyess park). I'm the only driver of my JP

He asked how much, I replied, just make some memories with your family, no charge, just have some fun. However he did get a professional photographer for the event and my husband and I watched as the photographer did his fun work.

A few weeks later (just the other day), Josh and his family came by with the JP Christmas card they had made, and a large gift wrapped neatly. The gift was an awesome canvas picture of my jp18 and I was just crazy delighted!
Merry Christmas
dne'
ps: I did ask the family for permission to post their pic/ less names.



This is Josh and his family~

 

So cool in every way possible.

 

now, finish the bronco and start an fc-150

 

Gary wants a '68 Camaro , I think I still have some good years left, perhaps an FC in the future
