Just needs some wreathing on the tires and it will be complete…

Just needs some wreathing on the tires and it will be complete… I have never wreathed tires before but it would be festive! Still needs to have all the sub components glued together, flat coated, glass in, mirrors painted and installed, winch cable painted, cover on roof bin cover made and installed. Then it will be done!

Just needs some wreathing on the tires and it will be complete… Must have been a holiday influenced autocorrect… Seriously now…. People are worried about AI? weathering…. Although I did see a jeep the other day that had its spare tire turned into a holiday wreath… never thought of that on my jeeps…

MAACO, Earl Scheib..... good to see there's a mature crowd here. And I like the paint on the truck too.

OK down to flat coat, weather tires, glass, mirrors installed and glue down roof. Next time it will be done.

Jeez Tony. 13 hours ??!! I couldn't have turned this out in 13 weeks let alone the time it took you!! What a turn out and it's been fun going back through the progress and reading some of the tricks you've pulled out of your hat to get this one to the finish line.
