Hey,

Oh..dam....That looks really sweet!! What is that motor from? And the suspension and all? Nice progress so far. Keep up the great work!

Frank X.

thew motor is from a 57 chrysler 300c . The rear suspension is from a dodge viper and the front is from a honda civic. I should have more progress and I need new wheels. From the mad mudder truck.

Nice CJ-7, those were sweet and nice work so far.

Thank im not using the hemi now. Im building a twin turbo v6.

Sweet project , I can`t wait to see some more progress !

Nice progress so far!

Yeah, thanks.
Good progress also.

No problem.

Come on people 350 views and only 14 replys?

Make that 16, any more progress?

tonight.

Hey,

Lookin good. The tires look a but undersized:-/ But you gotta work with what you have. Keep up the awsome work!!!!

Frank X.

good work so far. I like the cage and the way you gave the rear fender flares more of a Wrangler look. I'd have to agree with blubaja on the wheels, especially with a suspension setup as extreme as yours. Keep it up!

Ahh if I could get some bigger ones I would would but I dont know where to get any?

Hey,

There are some Aoshima super swampers n rim sets on ebay alot.

Frank X.

This is amazing!

I'm planing to do something like this in a Suzuki Jimmy/Samurai

But i have no ideia of how to build the "offroad" kit. Did you used any photo refereces?

Your job is amazing!
Waiting for updates!

See'ya

Here is a liitle more progress I have to finish the paint process. Not sure whether to use the rool bar or not. The paint looks real bad but not close to being done.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v645/flathead_dave/jeep4001.jpg Thats the basic layout of how i am going to have the winch except it will be on the frame.

Come on people!

Where has everyone gone?

Hey,

Calm down man. What is it exactly you want? Acknowledgement? Criticism? The pull bar on the front looks cool. The paint...eh...I'm going to have to agree with you. lol. You can try a respray, or jsut mud it up and it wont be as noticeable. And keep the roll bar. Nice progress and keep up the awsome work.

Frank X.

thank you I needed a little encouaragement with this progect. it has been getting on my nerves with school and everything... Hey does any know how to make bombs? just kidding I wish it would go away though.

Keep the rollbar.

I might be able to finish it tonight!
