Ahh, the 80's. I miss them....nothing like being a teenager during the age of decadence...

Most guys will scoff at chrome, but it's whatever you like. I will warn you- the chrome or stainless aftermarket hinges are no where near as sturdy as the stock stuff. I did the stainless thing once, couldn't get the doors to stay aligned...went back to stock. If you want chrome hinges, have your stock ones chromed.
 
You can get original chrome front and rear bumpers that would look better then tube bumpers. I think a chrome rollbar would look great and would be very unique! Probably not cheap though.


 
I like shiney:

Just make sure the shiney stays functional. Chromed axle tubes and steering linkage is dumb, but I'd be down to see a chrome roll bar.

Are you getting your steps done at EOR?

I hate those steps! I've seen them at an auto parts store, Pep Boys I think. They came with it. I'm about to have some fabricated in Murfreesboro that use the body-mount bolts. I'll take one from my LJ and have them replicate for the Scrambler. Thinking about having them and my roll bar and the bumpers chromed.

I like me some chrome!
 
You do like shiney!
And I like being a little different so I'm still considering having the roll bar & side steps chromed & getting a chrome grill but leaving the other accessories black. A lot of red, a little black, and a little chrome.
Wide Open Design in Murfreesboro. I liked the guys at EOR but decided to go with Wide Open.

yesterday morning my wife had the tv on, not sure which program - the one with Al Roker. Guess who the guest was for the cooking segment - Kimberly Schlapman!
 
She was promoting her cooking show on GAC; second season starts this Saturday. Last season's shows started at 1pm Eastern time, 12 central. Al Roker is executive producer of her show. I'm not a big cooking show watcher but she has such a great personality which really comes through on her shows and makes them enjoyable to watch; even last season when I had to give up the first 30 minutes of College Football to watch.

Hard to tell for sure but I think that is a 7, not an 8 but still a nice CJ. LBT better hurry and get a Scrambler in their videos if they want to be first! :D
 
Agree - the rear fender flares gave it away. And thanks for making me pay VERY close attention to that video for a few minutes.

My wife says she'll definitely come to the National if your wife is coming along with you. :wave:

No pressure. :rotfl:

LBT tour schedule shows Hot Springs, AR for June 22.
Should had the National at Superlift, DANG!
 
I, for one, would go on the record that if we could combine trail riding and country music, THAT is a good time!
 
Guys, you know there's already a bluegrass band playing at the Nationals this year right?
 
Congratulations to you and for sure to your wife. I have always listened to country in spurts, meaning listen to it for a long time and then don't for a long time. Just so happens I'm on for now and Tornado and Pontoon are two of my fav's. Hope they keep rolling and win many more.

If they did do a vid with a Scrambler they could show some kids riding in the back like we did back in the day... They could say "riding in the back, don't act like you don't want to"...lol.:crazy:
 
Sorry to be the non hip guy but who's LBT? I've been forced to endure Ooom-pa-pa music the last couple years. ;)
And if I am understanding this thread... the OP's wife is a (very cute) grammy winning singer(?) AND a cook? Could she whip up some hot buttermilk biscuits at the nationals? I'll pay for some sausage and biscuits that are home made! :)
