I originally came to this site just to find a 4x4 for a winter vehicle, a reasonably cheap stock wrangler. After looking around for awhile though I ended up kind of getting into it, and bought a lifted 92 wrangler with 31 inch tires.I was just going to drive it as is, but decided it would make a fun project. The body was pretty rough, and the floor was terrible. I just finished the body work on it, and laid fiberglass all over the floor inside. The body behind the fender flares actually had holes through it into the car, all that I cut back to solid steel and welded in fresh 18 gauge patches which were bondoed over. I also sanded all the rust off the frame and coated that with flat black as well (murdered out, the only way to go).......It needs a fresh windshield, and I want hard doors and a top for it, but its on its way........I was set to gun paint it, but my compressor took a dump, and I ended up doing it with spray industrial rustoleum....when it gets warm Ill put a real coat of flat black on it, but it still came out good. I dont know alot about 4x4's but I think Im off to a decent start. heres the before and after so far. When the weathers better Im going to fab some steps for it, customize the front bumper, add a winch, and a light bar....so tell me what you think

on another note, the guy who sold this to me is a friend of a guy who posted it here, so maybe some of you know him or will recognize the jeep. Let me say he was super cool in the face of a mess of bullshit with this sale.....distance problems, title problems (bad title problems) and I drove him nuts over it Im sure, but he was always really good about it, so if you know him, hes a honest dude, dont hesitate to make a deal with him....
