Very nice Ralph! Motivating!

How about a glamor shot or two of that engine bay?

I'll show the engine bay when I get the air cleaner done, just have a cone filter on the cross over tube right now.

Jeep

Your Jeep looks very nice. Is that the correct winter top that accepts side curtains or is it a summer top? What company made the top? Just curious because I will be ordering a top in the next few months.

Thanks,

Dave

Dave,
Yes it is the correct top, I just have the back folded forward and used the straps to tie it to the forward bow. It's hot here in TX and I wanted more air circulation. I have the side curtains but no doors. I used WeeBee Webbing for my top and seats. Was pleased with their work, response etc. The canvas is heavy and reminds me of the canvas when I was in the army. WeeBee says they use the correct weight. I would recommend them.
