    Are those seats and cup holders heated ? Lol.. just kidding.. it's a great build. This is the best part because it is so close the visual is there... but it is also when it is fun to slow up. Look it over tweak it here tweak it there.. add an idea of some little cosmetic change and or additions... just taking the time to enjoy the final little touches and do it right. Looking forward to seeing what's next as it all comes together. 😎👍

    My Uncle bought one brand new back in the 70's, i was so pissed when he sold it and did not tell me, i wanted to buy it badly. I was in High School and really liked that jeep. Did not ride in another until i was in Steamboat Springs for a softball torunement and hired a fishing guide. he picked us up in his which had a Chevy 350 coversion, teid to buy it buy he would not sell.

    It’s remarkable how much work you’re able to do for one person. Very well done. Great video too. One tip? Be certain that you’re looking out for your back. This type of work can do a number on your back, but if you’re careful, you can do it for much longer without a problem.
