Got the lettering all done today. That really made the jeep!

And now I have to bolt down all the stuff in the back. I had to move the little fire extinguisher from the driver's rear wheel well to between the seats.

Nate,
I think I spotted a tiny spec of mud on your bumper.  Kinda freaking me out.  Can you please do something about that? ;)

That thing really looks sharp.

Very nice, I thought water cans were painted blue. But red matches the Jeep better.

Thats correct for the military, but in the fire service, everything is red. ;)
