I hate when people do that...they should be put in prison!! Just because your filthy rich should give you the right to ruin a piece of history like that.

JJ...remember...even a TJ ain't a real Jeep. No leaf springs :lol:

Bring that up if anybody gives you any flak (which I don't see happening...that's a bad-ass rig)

Tom...I'll take an SWB 3/4 ton 80-91ish Ford van with a D60 front and rear with a 205 t-case and a 300I6. Whenever you get bored, ya know. Shouldn't take too long, right? :lol:

No leafs here either....

Not worried about it at all, I have round headlights and a Jeep badge on the hood.

So the total cost was about $24k without the purchase of the vehicle?

Olaf, See this thread for my expenses: http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/vie ... 799#302799

Mine ran around $24k-ish to do most of the project (which never ends really) Similar in cost to what you would spend on a full monty project on a LJ w/ Nth parts, built axles, Rubi case, coil-overs, etc. Costly for sure but I am worth it! :wink:
