i picked this up for 20 bucks at at small yard sale. Came with a battery but no charger. so here are the pictures. it looks like the rear axel might be bent so i will look into that when i do the rubber tire conversions.
so far the wife and i's plans are to keep it at 12volts, and add led headlights, and taillights. Then i have tons of streetglow blue neons that used to be in my show truck that i might incorportate. we are also thinking of a paint change but since everything is in good order we are still on the ropes about that
well on with the pictures
then here is the rear view of the axel bend

Thats a great find for $20 - I like the color on that jeep - almost and "electic blue" and those tires look almost brand new. The axle should be an easy fix, buy some rod from home depot/lowes....and your charger went out priority mail today |

well the color isn't going to last for long, we are going to paint it all black. I have a guy that deals with custom vinyl graphics. He gave me a sample graphic of Chrome Diamond plate w/ holographics as the treads. I will snap a picture of it tonight.
I am installing all the lights and doing the wiring first, then I will tear down and paint everything. I will snap a few pictures of the progress tonight. |

few more crappy pictures with the canteen and watercannon. I am waiting for this ebay auction to get over with and i will have new bumpers, liftkit and side pipes to install.
Its just an optical illusion, the lights really are centered up
