Good. After sourcing a donor for the quarter panel, glass and doors. Then disassembly and bodywork to the parts.

Now in assembly and then wrap.

Update

It's moving a lot slower than I had hoped but everything is going well. as soon as the body work is done in the rap goes on it goes back to fabrication to have the bumpers fitted back on and everything completed.

At this rate it looks like mid-october

I had an accident. The passenger side was a loss and the rear glass shattered.

Look at the first pics I posted.

Happy Holidays, Just checking in. Still on bodywork. Its not a hostage situation, just slow.
Hoping to get it back to Fab next month.

Looking at pop-up hard top tents and 400 watt flex solar panels. Already got the batterys. 3- 40 amp hour Lithiums on ebay. Looking at the Inergy system which is plug and play. https://inergytek.com/products/apex to avoid piecing it together. It also has additional batery storage.

The motor is running great. Just excited to get it on the road.

Have a great new year.
