    Looks like a good start with the layout and cutting. I think it will look pretty good when you are done.

    Looking like a project on its way now. The first cut so to speak!

    While I wait/try to find out how to upload a video of the little 4BT running, here are a couple photos on paint color I'm looking at. Thoughts?

    jb you cant do a video here. Some have set up a link to a video server like YouTube. Loving the pictures on this. Keep them coming! Especially the close up shots of what your doing. A lot of people will be interested in how you pull this off!

    That's a nice trans/transfer case combo. I always find someone who seems to understand color to ask about color! In the end I think its what you like, to heck with the rest! That thing is going to look cool with any color scheme. Maybe stay away from pink.

    Color

    Asking a bunch of guys about paint isn't a great idea; ask your wife, daughter of girlfriend...

    But, TJones would like that color - it's close to "The Orange Crate", but a bit more subdued.

    Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Lots to be thankful for on my behalf. Even got a little more time to work on my project this week.

    Still waiting on turbos but was able to get the new clutch installed/trans mounted, put new seal kit in transfer case, then was able to get it all matched up. That was a job.

    Next up, see if it will fit in the Willy?? :-) If it will not, everything is for sale!!
