Bulkhead & Hardtop are fitted.
Next step is to seal the bulkhead around edges.

Decided to rhinoline the interior of the bulkhead & surrounding areas.
I thought it turned out real nice with the contrasting silver rollbars.

I saw one of these crusing around town today. Painted burnt orange, looked pretty sweet!

Smoothed out a line beneath the door, so now there is just one seam instead of two. I like it much better.

Its been a while. Here are some updated pics. Getting closer. I have put some temporary wheels on, so I could get my new tires mounted. I also have the new 3rd brake light installed.

Sorry for the long delay. Here are some updated pics.

I am about 95% done. I just have some finishing details that I want to get buttoned up, and it will be ready to sell.

I am thinking somewhere in the $33K range, as I have seen some selling anywhere from $43K to $70K.

Also, on a side note, I have a 2nd JK8 kit that I planned on building, but have decided to just sell the kit. So, let me know if anyone is interested in that as well. They go for about $5000 new, and I will let it go for $4000.

It will be at the OReilly Auto Fest at the fairgrounds this weekend on Sat Feb 2nd & Sun Feb 3rd.
