Project Wagoneer is a 1969 Jeep Wagoneer. It was bought for the price of $90 with the ultimate goal being to make a very capable wheeler for under $2500 (including tires). It seems as the price tag hasn't stayed under $2500 but the roll cage wasn't a necessity so the price of that could be taken out.
It is slated to be done by .... soon! Check back often for updates! Jan 2007 Update: Project Wagoneer is almost complete, with the exception of the floor boards and some minor tweaking here and there, it is almost trail ready!! |
Coming Soon:
- 4-inch BJ's Off-Road Lift Kit - Done!
- Shackle Flip in Rear
- Front Disc Brake Dana 44 Swap (currently Dana 27) - Done!
- Fender "Trimming" - Done!
- 35-inch Swamper Boggers - Done!
- Floor Pans to be Fixed
- Roll-Cage - Done!
- Bench Seat to be Replaced with Buckets - Done!
