Thanks! I bought this car two years ago on ebay from a guy in Texas,the car was sold new in Alaska. The front end of the car was pretty damaged but I got a 4 door Limited with the deal and that had all the parts I needed for the front end. I will post a picture what the car looked like when I got it to Sweden.

Beautiful job! My Limited 2 door is in dire need of a paint job, I'm hoping to do that this year.

Did you buy the car from Ryan?

I know Ryan a little bit. I bought a 4 door parts car from him. Good guy. I remember him talking about going to pick up your car, but I don't know anything else.
