Chopped Up Broken Axle Beat Up Toy
So... here's my Jeep. I mainly just need somewhere to put pics and I enjoy the commentary.
Started with this, I was planning to chop the top and paint it safety yellow.

As I was pulling the interior I spied this:

Aaaand some more snip snip....

And it's off!

So I take it out from under the trees and start sanding and whatnot... and I go to start rolling on the paint and DOH!, I accidentally managed to grab my can of paint thinner instead of denatured alcohol to prep with so all of the paint turned into bubbles and ran off.

Of course this means I need to go wheeling! Unfortunately I didn't get any wheeling pics because about 10 minutes in I broke my passenger side axle. Har de har har har....

So pretty much I need to weld up the holes in the back and my buddy is fabbing up a small rear cage portion for me and we're going to fix that quarter panel. Oh, and I should probably fix that axle lol. :rolleye0012:

Nah, now you can take it to circle track and make those left turns really fast now
Re: Chopped Up Broken Axle Beat Up Toy
No problem, that makes for multiple choice steering. Kind of like taking a test in grade school. Take your best guess and go with it.
