Little Late Checking In

Well guys I'm a little late checking in but here it is.

I am about to be 16 years old and back in '93 my dad bought a 93 4.0 Wrangler three months before i was born. My parents split up and it is a miracle my dad didn't sell the jeep. he ran it til 98(never as a dd) and then kinda just parked it. Since then it hasnt really moved except for the three or four times a year he would take it out. Then at the end of April i started slowly but surely working on it. First chance i got i moved it to my grandparents ranch where they live because they have a well lit breezy garage to work in. I have installed new seatbelts,roll bar covers,radio,horn,wiper motor,changed out most of the Torx bolts to hex bolts,had the clutch master cylinder changed,and i am working on restoring the dash. I have also done a little engine maitnence like oil change new plugs belt and filter. i have new fifteens in the mail and i am learning as i go. it also has a factory graphic that i have never seen anywhere else. i have gotten alot of help from you guys already and discovered jc whitney and quadratec real quick. i live in corpus christi and the jeep is in falfurrias. i try to work on it whenever i see my dad. it is a work in progress and will be for many years.

anyways the name is miguel and it is nice to meet you



this pic was taken before anything i mentioned above was done
