The sun did not come out today when the 2a came out. Sorry, I wanted to see the new build in the sun, but at least its out in daylight. I think I'm calling it TANK in honor of my Dad who was a tank commander and the color. What do you think??

OK, the sun came out this morning, so here is that 2015 Jeep Tank green in the morning sun. I love the color and thinking I'm painting the Scrambler the same color, but maybe two stage. Oh and the M-416

Maybe I missed it in your build, but the steering wheel looks interesting- what is it out of? Is it attached to the stock column?

Stock column and the spines on the wheel is the same. Came out of a tractor and I have the part number somewhere. The column was shortened a bit and a bronze bushing ordered from Advanced adapters. The box end had the worm cut off and a piece of double D added. Then it was double D shaft to the Saginaw box with double cardin joints. The column was also pushed up into the bottom of the dash, but I had to modify the stock brackets. Steering was a pain in the beginning. Now the only problem is, going from a metric GM pump to a SAE J-10 box. Return is no big deal, but the power side is a PIA right now.

I had a custom exhaust put in last week and finished most of the wiring today, then.............................I fired the motor for the first time. Sounds great, but only ran for a few seconds, no coolant in it yet. I still have to fab up a neck for the thermostat housing. Hopefully, tomorrow, if we can get out of the rainy season we're in here, I can get that done and let her run and get her off the trailer. Just thought I would share.
