Default To ship or not to ship.

If you are not committed to the Jeep body in the US Greg there are alternatives as Tony suggested.

I don't own a Jeep but best way to go in my opinion (and others who have actually gone down this track) is that if you have an existing body that is beyond your ability to resurrect, get Simon Allen to rebuild it for you. All he needs really is the scuttle portion and he will build the rest using as much of the original as is recoverable.

Simon refers to this process as "re-skinning" and the main point is that the vehicle maintains more of its identity instead of being another Filipino replica.

Another feature is that Simon's work is more accurate than the imported replicas which many who have purchased them complain about.
