Very nice. What shocks are you using? And are the brake lines a kit or did you bend.

It’s been a little slow on this project between holidays, family projects, finding and restoring parts... I made progress this weekend on getting automatic linkages and transmission mount installed

Those Warns are nice. I’ve got a set of the old stainless KC Daylighters that I’ve been saving for Red.

I will be interested to see how you "re-patina" the side/decals after you finish the floor board repairs. Sucks about the floor, the rest of it was coming along really well, as far as keeping the OEM paint/aged factor.

I am sure you will get it right!!

Yep side decal will be a challenge to repatina... I have some ideas on paint or even a warn rocker as I do plan to offroad this one...

I plan to use synthetic line but may need a different fair lead, I had this from an old project
