Very impressive work! 4 months to get a Judge back on its feet. It's just awesome, putting these cars back together like that. Dedication I would say, for the lack of a better word.

Sorry to hear about the loss. Ever thought about keeping that car, in memory of your bros?

Brought another one back to life, and she cruises again!

A white one to boot, looks nice.

Cheers to that!

Great work, Greg! An awesome car and great dedication to your brother....

BTW, noticed you used Red RAIV decals...I know we discussed this many times in the past but don't remember if the consensus was that the decals would sometimes match interior when possible (depending on ext paint too) or varied by factory on when they would use black, red or white...

I like what i see, alot. Polar white with the black spoiler gives me the cold chills, and it is what 1970 Judge dreams are all about.
