Just upgraded my 09 Cherokee for an 07 lifted Rubicon. Lots of goodies already ordered and on the way. The end vision will be a tribute to my dad who recently unexpectedly passed away and was a Vietnam veteran (and retired state trooper). Have multiple decals ordered, but am open to any advice or ideas to make this a great tribute to my hero!
To all who have and will serve you're the top bunch and have all my respect!
You have just given your Dad the best honour possible by sharing that he is a Marine . ( Never 'was' , always 'is' a Marine .) Nothing better than a Marine . In Vietnam the Marines had the back of everyone else , and everyone else Owes the Marines . I was Army Infantry in Vietnam , and that is exactly what I tell Marine vets at the VA hospital . :bop:
Thank you everyone! The majority of the parts arrive today so it's like Christmas morning!! I have the progress on my Instagram @WI_Ruby . Also new to the forum thing but will try to figure out how to post a picture on here! Ha ha
I know my dad would Be proud of this project!!
Very cool! I have a memorial shelf at home with his patches and awards. He was also a retired State Trooper sooooo lots of badges, patches, trophies, and awards.
Thank you all for the support! I know dad would be laughing if I told him how many guys break their neck when they see the Jeep and than realize it's a chick driving!
It feels great to show everyday my support of our troops and how great my dad was!
Very sorry to hear of your loss. A lifetime of service between the Marines & State Trooper goes to show his devotion to Country, State, & Community. Both very honorable ways to serve.
