    I don't know about that Mike! The Chrome would reflect radiation, thereby increasing the lift on the botton of the Jeep!

    Make's sense to me! Of course I've already had 3 :beer: ! R) R)

    Man please don't go there its a cj6 not a 49-50 Merc or Olds.

    If you use baby moons you're gonna have to lower it, chop the roof
    drop a knarly big block in it, put hidden locks and handles on the doors and trunks and paint it black with a license plate that says Awesome Merc on it!! (ala Cobra)

    Maybe I'm not using the right word. I'm thinking something right along the lines of the kaiser 'caps, I just gotta get generic ones since the Jeep ones wont fit.

    Here...like this:

    Either that or I gotta paint the wheels...and not sure what color to go that way.

    Thats not to bad, but my honest opinion is that baby moons belong on cars prior to 1960 it just fits the image better. I mean I would have traded my left cohoney for Cobras Merc in the movie and I love cars with that look but baby moons to me fit that image, not on a Camaro, Mustang or Cuda, it just ain't right!!
