Even though its not a 2A thought I would post some pictures of "Easy" my new jeep, well its about a month old now lol Did a tune up, packed bearing, did brakes, fixed a few leaks in the transfer case and had the gas tank rebuilt and she is running great. Took her up in the hills Saturday for a nice drive. Man Jeep season is Here and I am LOVING IT!!!!

to many jeeps, parts, and accessories to list here, but apparently enough to keep me in trouble with my wife. |

Joshua, just keeps looking better and better. Reminds me of the time I was motoring my MB back from a thrashing show with the 1919A4 mounted. In a slow 4 lane a guy pulled up along side and asked " going hunting?" I said yep, prairie dogs! He almost left the road laughing. Did you find any hood #'s for it, and are you putting the stars back on? You can calculate your hood # with help from the "G".

Well originally my girl friend named it Rags when we went to pick it up because so many things were wrong with it and she thought it looked like a box of old rags lol. But after we got it home and fixed up a little we both kinda decided to name it Easy because it was pretty easy to fix up. My girl friend wants me to paint a guy sitting in a hammock taking it easy. We will see how my painting skills are lol

 that is a good one, prairie dogs haha!! Well I haven't looked for hood numbers yet. I plan to someday. I am still not sure what my plans are for the jeep. Ether leave it how it is or do I quick OD paint job. For now I plan to replace the seats with canvas but the rest of the jeep I think looks pretty good |
