Had a good weekend and I was able to finish painting everything. It's a nice change of pace to be putting things back together rather then tearing things apart! I'm also glad to be done sanding!

Looks awesome so far! Can't wait to tear mine down and rebuild it

My BAD I was looking at AC Ray's signature block 52!!!

I'll delete my post above to avoid any further confusion.

Well, i'm really wrapping things up at this point. Still some minor things to do, but enough done to be driving around now. Took me about 1 1/2 years and the jeep never left my garage. Have never done a frame up restoration like this so had a fun time learning as I went. I used my dad's unit numbers from the late 50's when he served in the army. He drove a lot of jeeps.

Nice job, Aaron!

By the way, have you moved to Australia?

On my Macbook they show right side up, on my iPhone they show upside down!

That's a fine looking jeep Aaron.
