Rich, it's looking amazing! I really like the riveted aluminum look. Awesome job! Can't wait for the final pics! Just a curiosity question, does the 922002 signify anything in particular?

Thanks. Yes the 922002 is significant. The tail wing of the planes had a six digit number and I was trying to figure out what to use. The 92 is for September 2nd which is our anniversary and the 2002 is our sons birth year. The letters beside the Airforce Logo always has the two letters on one side and one on the other so the RC C is for Rich, Carrie and Clay= Me, my Wife and our Son.

That's awesome. I figured they meant something and was curious. Always good to see someone holding strong to family, even when it comes to their Jeep.

Thanks guys. It's funny this thing was ready for the crusher when we started. Only down fall is I don't have a list of company name parts to post that I have put on this because the only thing I've bought new was wheel adapters and a BB. Everything else is just scrap. LOL.
