Just finished moving this weekend. Had to pack up the entire garage a couple weeks back during the move and I haven't been able to even touch the jeep. Prob a couple more weeks of it just sitting before I can get back on it and get the rear end capped. So its coming. One of these days.

I think you are commenting on the wrong build thread. No bondo involved in my build, this is a trail rig. I haven't working on the jeep all summer. I moved back in the end of may and the new garage is small so I have been putting in more work in the subaru. I have a no spark issue that I have been trying to work though for the past couple months that fingers crossed I will have fixed this week. Then time for some more welding so I can park her outside before the weather hits again. I did find out that my new place is only about 15 miles to a decent trail network so as soon as the spark issue is fixed I'll get some new wheeling photos.

Very little has been done to this thing all summer. But I need to get it going again cause I hate not being able to wheel. And my legacy is in need of a motor swap so I better have a backup before that time comes.
When I moved I guess I forgot all my scrap sheet metal that I had sitting around and I have a few more pieces that need to be welded in before I can start fitting the glass in and getting that part set up. So I did the next best thing and found some metal that would work.
And then just welded one side in place. The lady got home right when I finished that side so I called it a night and I will get the other side done later this week.
