Been working on the truck as time allows. Added a winch bumper painted to match and a 9500# winch
Installed the Katzkin leather seats. Really wanted red and white but that was not going to work so I went with red and black with white stitching and a quilted center to give it a little retro feel.
Wound up looking like Deadpools jacket but what the hell, looks good.
Stripped off the factory decals and added a reproduction JEEP tailgate decal for an old gladiator. Also had custom vintage jeep logos made up for the hubcaps.
Phase 4 and 5 should be done in a couple of weeks. The fenders get painted body color and the top gets two toned red and white with the white on top.
Phase 5 is the completely nuts and expensive part of this project but it is what I wanted since these were concept vehicles. Will gets pics when done up.
