The paint job reminds me of how carnival rides are painted. I can't wait to see the TDI's first start in the Jeep.

Not only am I excited to see this done in video but I hope it's ready in time for Moparfest in New Hamburg next month and you'll bring it! I want to take a Jeep Comanche frame and do a TDI swap with a '54 Fargo body.

@@Moparfest_Robbie it's done and on the road! 😄

Skipped to the end, I assume there's another video of it running. Not really into installation vids but would love to see it run, as a former jeep and TDI owner.
