    Oh nice! :)

    I like the addition of the shoulder belts. What are they out of and what's that vehicle on the right hand side of the garage?




    Sigh... I need a dash pad for mine :(

    The shoulder belts were out of a YJ, along with the bar... I had to cut the front mounting pads off the bar and about 3 inches, weld some new mounting plates on the front and make some brackets for the back. The spool (or whatever you call it) for the seatbelts is mounted at the bottom of the bar.

    That's a 50' Buick Special Sedanette (2 door). :twisted:

    Nice, very nice. I really like the way you used black as accent color, especially to trim the gauges cluster. Well done!

    It's Hot Rod Flatz Olive Brown....It's more like baby poop brown, but there's a strange coolness about it!

    Looks nice. Do you have some more interior pics? How did you mate the side bars to the windshield?

    Very similar to the color scheme I have planned for my CJ6 (I'll be using the same textured brown speckled rattle can paint I sprayed on a KLR650 I repainted last year). I especially like your shifter knob, skulls are kewl.

    The repainted KLR650:

    I know the paint looks smooth in the pics, but it has a sand like texture to it with lighter speckles. Almost looks like sandy dirt up close. It comes in the usual camo colors, brown, tan, green & black.

    Well, I was originally going to mount them using the stock YJ plates at the end of the bar...they nearly lined up perfectly...but then my patience got thin, I lopped off the plates and welded the bars strait to the windshield.

    How you like those tires? I really liked my set. They lasted me about 9 years. Actually still running them right now but they are ready for a new set. As long as they dont see mud, they are the greatest tire. Great tire for road/offroad. I ran across my old receipt and I picked them up for 97.oo each. Man I should have bought another set back then.

    I practically stole these tires....put an ad on CL looking for used or cheap 31's, this guy emailed me with this set (oddly, they are 32's, which I've never even seen) and they were brand new (old stock from 2004), with stickers still on them. He wanted 300.00 for them, I offered 225.00 and he took it.

    Love em' so far!
