The Beginnings of my Jeep #12

[jpsteve]

Well I finally got myself a Jeep. Its a 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ Sahara, automatic with the 4.0L. Has around 84000 miles on it. Just picked it up yesterday. I got the Jabsco lights, the rear fog lights, decals, cb antenna, the correct wheels and a couple more small pieces. Still need the Mopar light bar, paint, half doors and the soft top, but its a good start.

Yea baby yea! Good buy

[COBrian]

well other than it being an automatic but I guess the erst makes up for it.

[ratrace427]

erst? #12 was a auto in the movie and having my opinion of not liking the auto transmission the lights on top would make up for it. They will create more work for you but will be really awesome. I cant wait to see the transformation

[COBrian]

erst = rest typing to fast for my own good.

As for auto vs manual , since both were in the movie, and BOTH are #10 at different points its truely in my opinion personal preference.

#10 was manual during the chase ("get off the gearshift"), but when escaping the island the closeup reveals it to be an auto...

Messy few hours in the shop, but got the diffs and t-case flushed. Got the oil change done and even wired up the rear fog lights. Mounted on the correct style rims. End of day 1.
