BHPian ![]() | ![]() hey thats a nice jeep . Very neat job . Colour is unique . Luck you got the JEEP for free and that too a single owner one . Is it running a stock engine? Change the postion of the rear number plate its too low if you are considering doing OTRs Last edited by karizma9292 : 14th August 2010 at 10:48. |

| ![]() I guess this post of most significance to most of you guys working on rebuilds and restorations. Me thinks the actual team that helped on and worked on the project are far more important. That's my next post. For the numbers, here goes: NEW BODY 35000/- FENDERS 7000/- TIN WORK AND PAINTING 20000/- SALE OF OLD BODY -5000/- PARTS 45000/- NEW GB + TC 18000/- LABOUR 8000/- ELECTRICALS 3500/- FUEL PUMP WORK 3500/- SOFT TOP 11000/- SEATS RESTORATION 3500/- Thats a sum total of 149,500/-. I am sure to have missed out some costs here and there, but this is the most of it. Atleast the big ticket numbers |

| ![]() Hi 53, First off, your jeep looks wonderful - clean and sober, just beautiful! Did you get the hood made at Ramesh at CST Kurla road?! Would you mind disclosing the price of the same?! (I need to get a nice crisp/tight softtop made for my gypsy) Thanks! |

The material was supposedly imported from germany. but i am guessing it was more likely made in a place like bhiwandi. probably gets exported So thats why it was expensive to do. the price is in the costing post I am putting together a post on the hood with pictures. more info there | |

| ![]() Oh yes - I just read in the cost break up, the soft top was 11,000/- I have a couple of more questions! Does the Softtop have a layer of ply wood on the roof? Anything else that is unique/special about the top?! Thanks! |
