New guy here, almost done with build

This only my second jeep.... wife and i bought a new 94 when i got off active duty the first time. Obviously a yj , we loved it and had it for 10yrs... motor blew and frame rotted from the inside out and the belly pan cam crashing down will my wife was driving it. Unfortunately, i had her put a new motor in before the pan issue. i was in Iraq and told her to "ship it". Wish i had just kept it and fixed it.
 
Wow that’s an amazing amount of work. I wish I had a tenth of your talent. Welcome and excellent Jeep.

Im sure you have my ability... not sure your age, but much of what i know comes from the amount of circles around the sun ive had and the amount of wtf moments.

BTW, you're never done ;)

Curious how you got the foam out from inside the frame. Great job. Great pics. Congrats.🍻
 
Man I love threads like these with the pics. Heck of a job, especially getting rid of the cancer and also turning the interior green as well.
