    Hey Guys:

    Please comment on my restoration project, you can check out the picture gallery @ http://gallery.me.com/rickyjmg/100019. Next step is the tub. Running smoothly, I use it almost every day.

    Let me know what you think!

    I started to wonder where you were with all those palm trees. Good luck with it. I like how its got the older 7.00x16 army tires

    Yes, nice looking and solid Jeep to start the project. Keep it going.

    Can't remember seeing so many jalousie windows on one house. Are a lot of them that way in Puerto Rico?

    Yes Sir, they are very common here. The jeep has come a long way since I got it. I want to remove the roll bar to replace it by an original style top.

    I certainly like the way an early JEEP looks without a rollbar, but they are somewhat expected in the 21st Century.
    What do you mean original style top? a hard top?
