Ground-up Flat Fender Build

So... we are working on a flatty. Well we have wagoneer axles and a Chevy drivetrain, but there will be some flatty. In all reality I'm just building a 4x4 that will look like a jeep. Not much jeep, but still a fun build. Hopefully I can retain the nostalgia of the icon while still having a modern and reliable 4x4. Enjoy!

Rebuild Complete... almost.

Sorry for the lapse in updates... I've got the rebuilt motor in! My friend Andrew was a huge help with assembly. Now I get to start over on wiring, change out the fuel pump, redo the fuel lines, change the throttle assembly, built an air tube/cleaner, hook up the transmission lines, build a shift linkage, and... oh yeah, move to our new house! I need to come up with decent storage for the jeep to keep it out of the weather. No jeep updates for at least a couple weeks. Moto trip with the dads is coming up fast.

These are some reference photos of air cleaner space comparing the tbi to the cfsi intake.
