After 2 years and four days the restoration is complete!
It was a family project, my wife helped with all the stencils, my daughter sewed the seat covers and my son is a sand blasting fiend!

I wouldn't have been able to do this without the advice and dialog of this forum. I need to give a shout out to John Bizal, Peter DeBella and of course Wes.

That is great looking jeep, and it sounds like you have a terrific family.
Working on a project like that as a family is a wonderful thing that your children remember long after all life's other distractions have gone.
Congratulations
