honda250exs buildup

I have decided that I wanted to build a thread on my wrangler. My jeep is a 1987 wrangler YJ I6 4.2, My dad bought my jeep new in 1986 and held on to it ever since and gave it to me on my 16th birthday. I'll start off the thread on putting the pictures up of the restoration. Enjoy
My dad and I patched this up, It was rusted pretty bad


All taped up, The driver side floor was all rusted out, we cut it out and put a new floor in, you can see it in the picture.


The back of the tub

Now with that all said and done, the Rhino lining was starting to get sprayed on

Rhino lining is Done!!!!

Now since that's all done, it went in for priming



the hood

the hinges and the hood


final product outside the body shop

here's a couple recent picture's of the jeep at the bear mountain car show I go to, and enter my jeep in every Wednesday.
