Back to work!!!

Post by cju777 »

Hello all,

Am back from my stint in Baghdad and am ready to get back to work on the Jeep.

Left it in storage for about a year and the only issues was a flat tire on my return... but planned on new tires anyway.

For those interested I will be cataloging and detailing the process via photos on photobucket @ http://s249.photobucket.com/albums/gg232/cju777/M38A1/

Right now its a bunch of unorganized random shots from before I deployed but will be setting it up shortly.

Going to break it down to the frame and work my way back up. Anybody from the Fort Carson/Colorado Springs areas recommend anyone for the various technical steps (engine rebuild, painting and such)?

Glad to be back!
