Morning all~
I have a 94 YJ that has seen better days. Everything runs great, but now the rust has started bubbling through, thanks to living in the salt belt. I want to start converting it over to fiberglass, but there seems to be a few different options in the way they all fit together- I've seen a tub with the front fenders all molded in, and I've seen separate peices for that whole area. (hope I'm explaining that well... it's pretty early over here) Question is, what's the way to go here- where should I start first? I'm thinking I can start with the doors or tailgate because it might be the easiest before I tackle the whole tub. I can't afford to do it all at once and am most likely looking at a shop doing the tub to save me the hassle that I think it'll be, plus I don't have nearly enough of the tools anyway. I'm budgeting to have everything complete in about 2 years.
Also, I have the 'swoosh' side decals that spread out over the whole side- after they paint the new 'glass, can they salvage the decals? I'm not that crazy about them but at least they add a little originality to the Jeep... as if it being teal isn't enough hehe. I would rather try to keep them, though, if possible.
Oh- any disadvantages to coverting to 'glass?
thanks, coop
