working on it. This is the first pics as it was delivered to the dealer today with the retro grpahics package from the factory. They will put the mopar 2" lift, fox upgraded steering stabilizer, and my 35" Grabber ATX on quadratec retro wheels. Have the Black horse rollbar that attaches to the factory trail rail system that also allows a tonneau cover to be installed.
QRC winch bumper and bumper are next once I take delivery from dealer. Getting excitied

That looks like it’s going to be great. I’ve been looking at having some custom wheel center caps exactly like that made. Can you share where you got those? Would love them on my gladiator and same CJ retro wagon wheels. Thanks.

I know the Chief wasn't a truck, but my grandfather had one and this is my homage to it. Just got it back last week before a long road trip vacation, it was a ton of fun out and about

Out. Freaking. Standing. Really looks amazing. How did punting the hard top go? I have black hard top and also looking at changing the color. Looked at ordering new primed hard top and painting, but that’s really really pricy. Any tips or info on where / how you got yours done is appreciated. Thanks.

Absolutely Money!

Here's a blast from the past! Me and my 1989 Comanche. Many many years ago
Fun truck. I paid 6700 for it with only 9000 miles on it! I put a 3 inch lift and 31 inch Cooper MT's on it along with a Smittybuilt
double tube push bar bumper on it. It had the indistructable 4.0 in it with a 5 speed manual. Awesome truck! Don't laugh too much!

Painting. Not punting your hard top. ‍

Someone on here replaced the front grill and added a bunch of other cool retro changes. Really transformed their JT. I hope they post as it looks fantastic.

Nice Hood decal. Something I'm trying to do as well

Hows it coming Osprey? Get relocated and set up?

Yeah, got a new place but still getting things all how I want it. Did get the wheels and lights on the truck, just been driving it hard since. Snow and mud on the outside, deer blood and goose feathers in the bed all season.
