Wife just asked me when I was heading to OR “to fix that jeep…the one where his wife plowed him?”
I'm impressed with how quickly you pivoted since the wreck. Sometimes work is cleansing for the soul; I can see how it would be beneficial to dive headfirst into something like this considering all the heartache you've heen through recently.
Still, it's impressive what you've gotten done in such a short time. If I were in your shoes, it probably would take months from the wreck to get where you are today. Hats off to you.
@macleanflood you knew as soon as you bought a tub and frame one would pop up right?

What are the paint plans? White? Red?

Here's another one for you east coasters. Sure there's a forum member close enough to make a deal and a hotshot willing to drive it out for a decent price...or road trip it...but give me a month or two before I do another marathon wtench thrash.

Wish I could see the control arms !
I love this shade of red... what's the paint name for it from Jeep and was it available in 97? I'm not a puritan but I'll at least pretend like I'm trying to do a numbers matching restoration.
Flame Red. Ask me how I know.
My 97 is Flame Red, too. Jeep also offered Chili Pepper red in 99, but that's a darker shade. I do love a red Jeep. It feels like the proper color for a Jeep.
