1983 Scrambler "STUMP JUMPER". Frame off, 5.3 Conversion.

Revenge is a dish best served cold. But hot lead works equally aswell

I just had a talk with Stump Jumper and now I feel all better. :)

I'm installing some sound proofing and insulation called HydoTurf on the interior floor, firewall, kick plates and cowling in the morning with the help of the sales rep. I already have the molded carpet to top it off on the floor.

I had to wait for the gauges also (I did mine during the Christmas season). Believe me, well worth it. Would rather wait for something good than get something quick that did not work (auto meter gauge we talked about).
 
I'm sorry I burnt the popcorn and had to do it again. The popcorn was supposed to be after post 359/360 :eek:

I also spent a little therapy time sitting with Smith and Wesson. Sig, Colt, Anschutz, Remington, Surgeon, FN and my other friends upstairs.

I'm heading out for some "Group Therapy" myself this afternoon. My new HK45 is crying for attention. But then again so are my Scramblers. I'm going into Scrambler withdrawal...
 
We got all the Hydro turf insulation installed today. I think this is about the best I could do. Carpet going in soon.

Oh.
Insulation material and labor $425, carpet $130.
Cha-Ching.


 
Had another therapy session with my Scrambler this afternoon. Stump Jumper asked, Father what am I, a GM or a Jeep"? It brought a tear to my eye. So I said, "Jeep and GM both made fine trucks but when you combine the best of both the result is a Super Truck. Scrambler said isn't that what Hitler and Stalin tried. I guess I shouldn't have drove the Hummer this morning.

A bit of advice...hold off on the whiskey until talking to SJ. (Stump Jumper/Super Jeep):crazy::cheers:

Tell SJ that neither of those examples apply. More like Steve Austin, Six Million Dollar Man. ...

The Six Million Dollar Jeep- Gentlemen, Dennis can rebuild it. He has the technology. He has the capability to make the world's first bionic Jeep. Stump Jumper will be that Jeep. Better than it was before. Better... stronger... faster.

But Randy I don't drink. Can't afford trucks, guns and drinking. LMAO
I'm crazy enough without mixing those three.
 
I love it when Randy make fun of me like that. Everything I know about Jeeps I learned from watching his build.
 
I decided to tackle that dreaded drive by wire accelerator pedal today. It turned out better than I thought. I started with the pedal from the same 2005 Tahoe as the Engine came from.

Your pedal started and ended up just about the same as mine!

Thanks for the kind words, Dennis. I really don't think I deserve credit for your obvious skills, however. I'm wanting to build my "Red" as a copy of yours!

Not drinking is a good thing. Although sometimes I need that "creativity in a bottle"...

One of these day I'm going to get to Oregon with my Jeep in tow full of smoke poles and we are going to go fire a few hundred rounds and when we are done I'm going to drink a couple beers with you and tell lies.
