    All the cool kids have red jeeps...

    If you ever make it up this way I have the "4 wheel drive" stencil for the tailgate.... you're welcome to take it and mail it back.

    Absolutely. It's not perfect, but the body isn't perfect. I think it looks really good. Can't wait to get the inner frame back from the glass shop. Tomorrow I'll get the windshield frame on, and maybe get the top back on.

    Yeah, I forgot the tailgate stamp is different than the hood stamp, so I used the stencil I had made for the hood on the tailgate. It's good enough. Thanks though.;)

    Note- the drip pan is actually for the Tux because it has a little leak from the rear main seal..;)
