Looks awesome, very nice job. My vote is for a 2.3l turbo.

Thanks for all the comments guys. I got all the paper off it today and pulled it outside in the sun for a little while. It seems like the clearcoat on top flat panels(hood roof trunk) layed down really nice but the sides of the car have a good bit of orange peel look. Anyone know why that would happen?? Gun settings?? Do you think I would be able to wet sand it then buff it and get it a little smoother? Never buffed a car before, so I may have my buddy do it for me. Let me know what you guys think. I may open another thread for this question. But thanks again guys!

Kevin, that is by far the best looking MII I have ever seen. Awesome job!

 

[turtle5353]

Thanks guys! Its been alot of work, but i have learned a ton doing this project. I have to get it finished up because i just started a 97 jeep wrangler that im replacing floor pans and fixing frame and lots of metal work, then paint it for him. Busy summer.

 

[sm3570]

Glutton for punishment?

 

[turtle5353]

Yeah definately!!! but i do enjoy it. I like the metal work and the paint work. HATE the body work But im getting pretty good at the metal work so it cuts down on the body work The jeep will be pretty cool got a nice lift on it and 35 inch tires. Pretty basic to paint everything is flat on it and its small. I will have to get some pics posted up on here if you guys are interested in seeing a jeep reborn LOL

Nice job.

I'd love to see pics, I really like Wranglers. Not a big fan of my Grand Cherokee though . It's cheaply made.
