Hahaha, my brother is always sayin' Whatchu talkin bout Willis?! Made me grin. Its hard to believe, the TJ will be two generations old next year! I can take solace that they still have a bunch of AMC parts bin stuff too :victory: It just seems so new when you compare it to our other...

I've lusted over that baby for a loooong time, way before I had any idea of Jeff's involvement. Stumbled across it while looking for a half cab for a clapped out Scrambler I should've bought. It really is the perfect solution, but at that price point I could buy another vehicle capable of...

I figger its about time for another update. My short reign of terror is over in the El Camino. It's a little sad, its back to being a nobody back on campus. Who knew in only having it here two months shoved in the basement of a parking deck I would become the "Camino Kid." I still get asked...

Preach it. Stupid nanny state ruining cars.....get off me. Don't tell me how to drive, and don't tell me what to drive. If I wanna drive something unsafe let me, and if I'm not as good as tecnology so be it. What turns me off from new cars is they're all just appliances. Nothing has any...

Howdy y'all, I'm a broke college kid from the great state of NC. I guess you could say I fit into this lifestyle, cause right now I got time and no money. If it floats, has wheels or goes boom I'm prolly interested. I'm over on the Jeep side mostly, I've got a thread I put things on...

x2 here. People probably called my dad crazy when he bought a Jeep as his daily with a 2 and 4 yr old, but lemme tell ya, that thing was the *******. I remember feeling like the coolest kid in the world when he would pick me and my brother up from school with the top down and we'd climb over the...

Very much so. I'll see if I can draw a mockup once I get back and see if I like it. Thanks!

What are the approximate dimensions of this tank? Wasn't able to find anything on their website. Trying to avoid blocking out rear visibility. It would go on a tj with the stock tailgate (would have to upgrade to Jeff's HD hinges) with a 31" tire. The pictures seem to show it covering most of...

You're killin me smalls...... Man I need one so bad. It's beautiful. Plus it would give me an excuse to swap in some low back matching color bucket seats in.....love it with the Commando front clip too.

I found one of your renderings for the tj Commando cab, looks pretty good. Not as proportional as the lj, but pretty sweet. I think you mentioned that what made the Commando cab special was the removable roof panels too, am I remembering correctly? "Significant time drain" sounds unfavorable I...

That's really cool that you taught that guy! I've always thought it would be handy to have a wide variety of skills. Not to be a master of all things, just a basic understanding of how to do stuff. I'm decent at woodworking (and by that I mean I've helped my dad build decks and metal roofing...

I too would love to loan you mine for the full Commando kit. (I think that would be the only way I could give up my soft top haha) I wouldn't mind learning some rudimentary fiberglass skills too, if you don't mind me getting in the way :)

For me it would be an expense several years down the road (assuming I don't get myself a Wagoneer by that time and use that for the multi-day long range stuff instead of the Wrangler) although it might be nice to have the extra range if I drive to field camp next summer in New Mexico from North...

Dirtbaggin' in the ElCo. Brought it down a few questionable dirt roads all around Falls Lake looking for kayak put-ins (read: because I'm a moron and can't resist it) and found the best place so far is a road that has been covered over by the lake. Has a few sizable washouts but a careful line...

Really thinking about this....I don't really need one at this point but it would free up interior space from a jerry can, and when you look at the price of mounting brackets for jerrys it's right about the same price. Curse you sale, I didn't want to spend money.....

I grew up in the back of a TJ, and that beauty is now mine, but I must admit, our old CJ5 was my first love affair with a vehicle, after I figured out it wasn't going to kill me that is. I still regret not loving it as much then as I do now, I would have it instead of the TJ. I know it's...

Incredible skills, Jeep is looking better than new. Makes ours look like a pile haha Interesting read through the color choice discussion. I was never much interested in paint but I love old Jeep history and that was really cool, and now you've got me interested in paint codes and factory...

Enjoyed the read, nice Jeep. Always liked the 2 doors better, and they're getting harder and harder to come by. I know how you feel about not getting out, before college I took gravel roads home from high school daily, now it's a 2 hour minimum drive to see any dirt......

I think I generalized all CJ metal hard tops into the "World Cab" classification, my bad. I seem to remember you mentioning your scrambler world cab being the inspiration for your Safari Cab. Still one of my favorites. I love the ad of the Scrambler going through the river and your...

I agree, I like the pickup stock, and the LJ-8 is perfection. That's a shame about the fiberglass company, I think that would've been big hit. I mean, I've got a TJ that would love that treatment ;) Plus it would be really cool to see it side by side with our CJ5, but I live far enough away...
