This was taken one week after I bought my jeep. I had only put a front bumper on it. It still had a 4x4
wooden post as a rear bumper and none of the colors matched. It also ran with a big tick coming from the
motor.

| This is a few months after owning my jeep. My buddies and I
custom made the front brush bar and welded it onto the bumper.
I also got 2 KC off road lights and a set of driving lights as
well. I got a pair of bumperettes from the junkyard. The Jeep
also got a junkyard BBD carb that I ended up rebuilding. I also
installed a set of seats from a 91 wrangler. Yes, it still had
the ugly ass brown doors. |

This is the KillerBee. This picture was taken at one of the car shows over the summer. As you can see, it has
changed a lot through the few years that I have owned it. It started out as nothing more than a body on a
frame and a weak motor. Through a few years and a lot of money, she's been transformed into my baby.

This is a view of the old interior as purchased. It was a little ratty...ok it was really ratty. The dash
board had rust on it, the wiring was shot, the seats were completely gone, the back seat was in a shape of
a "V" when I first sat down on it, the seat belts didn't work, and it had ugly ass brown doors. This is not
to mention the cigarette butts throughout it. It was still my baby...well maybe it turned into my baby.

| This is a view of the new interior....much better eh? It has
brand new wiring, stainless steel dash, GT steering wheel, 91'
Wrangler seats which now feature a set of custom made Wet Okle
seat covers, polished shifter knobs, Auto Meter Pro-Comp gauges.
Even more goodies include a pretty kick ass sound system, roll
bar padding, Saab floor mats (my Saab gladly gave those up). There
are other little things here and there too. This was all completed
just about one year later, give or take a few days. It still needs
to have a V8 dropped in and to be lifted. |
