Nice detailing Alan. You have got a superb paint booth. Waiting to see the more on mechanical side plus would be interesting to see what you have done to increase the stability of the vehicle.

Alan,

The paint booth is nice, I must mention that even some of the A.S.C. would not have one this kind.

What are those colored blocks, paint shade samples?

rallystar · 16th July 2009, 14:44

which otr on 19 th in goa?

spawnofsatan · 16th July 2009, 16:16

Great job on the Jeep, is this your workshop? Where did you get the work done?

xtreme power · 16th July 2009, 16:55

yup its my workshop
work with my uncle
shall be out commercially in a month times

bigman · 16th July 2009, 17:10

Best of luck with your new workshop.

No doubt you will remain a thorough professional but please don't let your workshop get to the low standards of others where they take months to do simple renovation type work. Also if possible please post pictures of work you do on Jeeps, it would be interesting to see before and after pictues of any jeeps you work on.

Hey xtreme power, that a cool jeep . Are these maxxis mudzilla tires you have got there?

Can you tell the specs and the place to find them ?

randeep04 · 16th July 2009, 17:29

Cheers !!!!!!!!!

What's under the hood ?
Could you please share more details and your experience while doing the mods.

Something like this -> http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/4x4-te...ml#post1230042

Except for the SPOA any other "mods" done ?

Also what is the expected financial damage for just the SPOA ?

100BHP · 16th July 2009, 18:07

AWESOME !
I have not seen many projects like these (there must be great projects like these done by many BHPians) but this is fantastic.
I mean the concern shown for 3F (Feel, Fit , Finish) is mind boggling .

Kudos for such an art .

Will like to know the actual cost of project and options with solid roof top and windows .
