Default Another Jeep Gone..
Well this is a second AJOR Vehicle to be de-comissioned. The CJ7 Rockcrawler bid farewell today as the final parts were dismantled to make room and cash for the new project.

For those that watched the buildup, hope you enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed doing it. Heres a tribute video of the vehicle after completion and the wheeln sessions that made it so special.



The experience of building a vehicle this big was something that will stay with me forever. All the hand crafting of components, trial and error, excitement seeing things work. Its all what make it such a joy.

As for whys it gone, well you can only have so many toys is the simple answer. Practicality is a major motivation. In the end I set out to build something I wanted to build, and for all intents and purposes this was acheived.

Until the next buildup.....! Enjoy!
