Here is the set-up I was toying with. It was too gaudy for my tastes and the weight of the hood was far to much, it was bending the core support. I went back to the stock hinges instead and ditched the forward tilt concept.

NCD1966 · 02-26-2012, 10:53 AM

nice work man, at first I wasn't sure if I like the idea about the tandem axle. But thats going to be a cool ride! I like the two tone color also.

by the way, what color is that blue called?

HotRodYJ · 02-27-2012, 11:17 AM

no updates. Told you it was a slow build... lol

piratexpress1369a · 08-21-2012, 02:03 PM

ok time for some more updates

HotRodYJ · 09-26-2012, 08:53 AM

Still nothing to tell. Been busy with life, kids, and other projects that got slid in front of "MY" projects. Hoping another couple weeks I can get back on this one.

Kind of hard to see where I was going with that now, haha

HotRodYJ · 04-17-2013, 11:13 AM

I know you wont believe me, but I swear I have not forgotten this project. In the past year I've built a motorcycle from the ground up that fell in my lap, and also completely built a Jeep YJ for my soon to be 16 year old son. The idea now is once July gets here and he's driving, I can get back to work on MY 66.

piratexpress1369a · 04-18-2013, 11:06 AM

think your son needs to help you in the shop too

HotRodYJ · 06-03-2013, 08:23 AM

YJ is officially done. Should be getting back on the 66 next week.

BuiltByBrooks · 06-05-2013, 11:14 PM

Love the color man!

likaroc13 · 06-06-2013, 12:50 AM

Nice job on the Jeep! Your son should be very proud. Looking forward to continued progress on the '66.

laid67 · 06-09-2013, 02:41 PM

may I ask what color that is on the yj? looks beautiful.
