This is my first jeep. Which a friend gave to me. It has been a dream car of mine since I was a kid, and now I have one. This is the long road to getting it up and running and fixed.

Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated.

My first thought is I need better friends.

Let us know the issues and we will do our best to assist you. Welcome to the forum.
 
My first bit of advice would be to get it running and drive it to see how you use it before you make huge plans. What is the status of it now? What will it take to get running?
 
I got it running. Replaced the battery. Replaced the radiator since the old one was damaged and leaking. There is no damage to the frame or the body. The engine is solid and doesn’t need anything really. Just need to replace a brake line, and a couple electrical things inside. And top up some fluid. The electrical issues are the most concerning at the moment. And tires and wheels of course haha
 
Looks like the dog approves it. And has claimed that spot.

Just take your time. Its alwas faster to do the job once.

Did you paint those DC2's or is black a thing? I really like those!
