Overview
Picked the jeep up as a build project. It doesn't really require much body work so it seemed like a fun project for me and my dad since we don't have to mess with rust and grime that comes with a full restoration project, and can get straight to the mods and fabrication. I would put our skill level at a high novice, so any tips, tricks, or suggestions along the way would be helpful and appreciated. This is really our first stab at a cross platform build as opposed to a restoration or break fix work. I'm starting the build thread to keep a running log of the research that we do as well as share any lessons learned or helpful knowledge with other builders in the community. Will be adding posts as we go.
