  • Have been wanting to fix up my lil yellow Jeep for a while now.
    Since the windshield is cracked and the frame is the wrong color, that was a good starting point.
    Dug out my trusty bread knife and went to town, didn't even add another crack to the glass.
    Took about 30-40 mins of elbow grease to get that critter cut out



    On to welding some small holes in the frame shut, add bondo and then give er some pretty yeller paint
    Good thing windshields are cheap both my Jeep wanted new glasses



    Look ma no more holes





    All mudded up





    Time for a nap, has been a productive day

    Look what happened after my nap





    Now add some yeller and it's all pretty again

          • Color doesn't match anywhere near as close as I would have liked, not much I can do about it.
            Bought the paint a year ago

            Beautification is continuing





            Doesn't look all that terribly bad
