Very nice. We're spoiled here in the U.S.A. Most parts can be ordered through the mail or found used from other Jeeps.

Nice work with the panels. That lift looks a bit high to me for sure.

Looks like the body panels fit together well from the start and your welds didn't seem to warp it. can't wait so see the finished product.

It was difficult and demanding but patient and persistent work to get results. I mention that I live in Serbia and it is very difficult to get parts for the Jeep so most of body panels are handmade.

WOW! Seeing the rust issues you have overcome makes me feel like my CJ is a cake walk! I have a little rust in the floor and rear finders, but nothing like what you have delt with! Well I say that today, but the tub is going to the blasters this weekend, so I will let you know.

Just started a build thread (1976 CJ Resto Project (The Journey))

Keep it coming :lpopcorn::lpopcorn::lpopcorn:
