I saw one with a chopped roof once, it didn't look as good as it sounds like it would. Was a complete custom, 2 door Wagoneer converted to look like a wide trac Cherokee and on 4 wheel independent suspension.Yep, I know my PM box is full. Email me instead.

Just caught a brief shot of your beautiful rig on the latest episode Roadkill Extra (episode 48).
David Freiburger from Hod Rod mag. walked by while filming at drag week. I said "hey! I recognize that Chero!"
I have been following your thread since the beginning. Great job. I wish I had half your talent.

If all goes well, we can toast to accidental successes.
I'm convinced I'm just too dumb to know that I can't restore this old truck...

Thanks! Us Gregs have questionable taste in vehicles apparently, haha.
A buddy gave me a pair of slicks so I decided to hit up the drag strip again. Kind of surprised me, it picked up a bunch. Best was a 11.14 @ 125.5 with a very soft launch. I was launching harder later in the day but unfortunately the 2nd and 3rd gear syncros I've been nursing along decided not to play nice and I lost time in the middle of the track waiting for it to go into gears. It's got a high 10 in it for sure.

Got a cool opportunity to attend Ron Sutton's suspension workshop at RideTech's shop. Highly recommended, the guy knows his stuff. And RideTech was impressive, I'm real tempted to upgrade to their stuff. The shop is only 400 miles away so of course the Jeep got to see some road time. Added flex fuel capability the day before the trip, got 13.3 mpg over the 842 miles. Picture taken at RideTech.
Then this past weekend I finally cracked the 10 second barrier. Drove to the track, swapped tires, and ran 10.97 @ 125.2 on the first pass. Swapped the street tires back on and ended up going a best of 11.50 @ 124.2 on the second try. Still only on 7 psi of boost and a super conservative tune.
Finally cracked the 10 second barrier. Also ran 11.50 @ 124 on hard compound low profile street tires.
An older pass but showing the speedo and tach.

Finally got to make some autocross runs this weekend. I had a hard time during my timed runs but my friend ended up getting 3rd in CAM (they combined all 3 CAM classes). After competition I was able to get some clean runs in. The Jeep was pretty decent for the first outing. No real complaints except I need more seat time.
My second best pass, the camera died just before my best.
Brad's passes.
