ny_driver is just getting started
Default project : fix-up Jeep

I bought this Jeep over the winter and it looks a tad bit too rusty for me to drive around. So I'll do what I can to make it look decent.

This is one of the biggest drawbacks of living in NY....we use salt to make the roads drivable....flocking brilliant I tell ya. Sand seems to work pretty good for the rest of the country/world.

First pics are the Jeep untouched. Then the wheels being reconditioned, then the Reese hitch being reconditioned. The hitch is sitting in the garage painted and waiting to be reinstalled now.

Check out the 2-3 pounds of rusty corroded steel I knocked off the Reese hitch with a hammer.

Ordered some Good Year Wrangler AS/R yesterday. By the end of summer I hope to get some fender flares, a 2 inch lift, and some 31" tires.

More pics to come.............
