Busy couple weeks...not on the jeep though.
I was able to get the corner welded in and plan to get both fenders ready for final body work this week.

No progress on the fender, work is getting in the way.
I did, however, receive confirmation that my newly rebuilt fuel pump is on the way. There was an electric pump on the jeep and the original f ... |

So, I ended up repeating your story Bryan.
