ReBuilding Ruby - Bringing Her Back To Life

[oceanblue2019]

Neat project!

You can get a lot of take-off stuff such as fenders and grills so no need to buy new. Just watch the market place.

Looks like you guys are going to have your hands full for a bit. If you find any of our stuff was damaged in the wreck, let us know.

We actually had a totaled JLU delivered to our shop this morning that we are putting together for a friend in SoCal.

Perfect time for a long arm install with the frame out

And after RK long arm install with the body off, the next step is a Hemi. :D

@Rock Krawler Suspension that is awesome of you guys!

@Rubycon50 I'm going to be following your build closely. I am also thinking about picking up a salvage JL to do a rebuild.

Guys,
Sorry about the huge delay in posting. We have been very busy with the Ruby and she is really coming along well. I updated my original post tonight (Post #1). Just go back to post #1 and you will see the updates.
Take care.

Awesome stuff. Thanks for bringing us along!

@Rubycon50 a few things....

• This is a great project, congratulations to you and your son(s)
• The video editing is awesome, your little one is doing a great job, and is being involved in this project
• My father got into building kit cars when I was a kid, and I helped with two, and the restoration of an MGB Roadster (I lived in the UK). There were definitely some tense moments between us, as I was still learning, and patience with your own kids is sometimes tough. However, those times are memories that I can keep with me forever, as your boys will, and they will never forget this Jeep.

Keep up the good work, I look forward to the next update!

This is awesome! ...and your son did a fantastic job of video editing, BTW! Can't wait to see continued progress

I have enjoyed following this build. Some of my favorite childhood memories were working in the garage on our Bronco.
