Why do you still have the top on anyway, it's been warm enough lately? I'm super jealous of all the Jeep with their tops and doors off.

I guess it works out though, since we are supposed to get thunderstorms tonight...

If you get a cj7 I would suggest not getting tw inline 6 4.2 it will get up and go but my ex has problems with it running with it having a carburetor. If anything get a YJ with a 4.0 great engine haha.

And paint!

Take your time and rattle-bombing a Jeep can look really awesome. Do as many light coats as you can force yourself to do.

Also, buy a cab-cover so you can dump the top!

I still think it's an improvement. At least it's something new. I need to change something up or tinker with it from time to time just not to get bored with things.
