Re: Toying with an idea...??

Don't fall for the jeep trap. Old, real jeeps are cool but the Chrysler ones are still Chryslers no matter how much you spend. Many, many guys at work have $70K- over $100K custom jeeps and they are always in the shop. ** Disclaimer: The aforementioned is IMHO as well as those mentioned that still own, complain and continue to throw their checking account at their jeeps.
I love the old trucks we have for many reasons, but mainly because they are memory time machines. HOWEVER, I would like to build a "1972" GMC Jimmy 4x4 out of all new components. Other than the hard top, I believe all the body components are available.
If you jump in for the big win and do this and don't go bankrupt and/or get divorced, I might have to build one too. I've been drooling over the No Limits complete frame assemblys....
