As many of you know, TCOR & HTR has been working hard all winter on a jeep build. We are selling raffle tickets for it, in order to raise money for the MS Society. Tickets are $10 each. We have 1000 tickets, but will get more if necessary. This jeep is seperate from the event itself, but the winner will be drawn at the event during the dinner/door prizes. You do not need to be present to win. You can purchase tickets from most HTR & TCOR members. Or email one of us if you're out of town.

We debuted it at the MN4WDA Spring Convention April. We will also have it at various events up until the C4C. Tickets will be available at those showings.

It started as a wrecked YJ. The tub was wasted, the motor was blown. It was just in really rough shape, but the frame was perfect. We really went all out on it. Here are the specs.

1995 Jeep YJ
4 cyl.
5 spd
Dana 30 front
Dana 35 rear

Completey stripped, frame sandblasted & painted black.
5" BDS suspension lift (donated by Burnsville Offroad) Rubicon Express shocks Replacement tub from Arizona, Custom painted Viper Red New Tuffy Security Console Stainless hinge kit (donated by Minneapolis Auto Auction) Custom built show cage ( Non Structural, Not designed to protect occupants in the event of a crash, rollover or accident, for decorative purposes only) Custom built tube fenders Mickey Thompson wheels (donated by Minneapolis Auto Auction) 35" Mickey Thompson MTZ tires (donated by Pro Auto in Hutchinson, MN) .

We are very proud of this thing. It has taken alot of time & work. But it will be worth it in the end. One lucky person will drive away with a really cool lookin' jeep, for only $10.00

You can see many of the dedicated people in the pics. We certainly thank them for all of their hard work & dedication to this project. There are a few people who have spent a huge amount of hours on this thing. Jeff has literally hauled it all over the cities to various shops. Brian spent huge hours painting it for free. Lame designed & bent the show cage & fenders. Ken donated the new shocks & center console. Thank you to you guys. We certainly could not have done this without you. Thank you also to Bubba (who really had the idea) & the North Shore Wheelers, for their help & the donation of the new motor.

Thanks also to our sponsors:

* Pro Auto, for the tires (320-234-9690)

I know I have forgotten people, so for that, I apologize. I will post up as I remember.
As you can see, this build is far from done. We still have alot of parts to install. We will post up as things get done. We are also continuously looking for more things to add to it. It will be completed by the Crawl 4 the Cure, ready for the new owner.

To view the jeep in person here are a few of the places you can see the Jeep:
5/19: Car show in New Richmond, WI
5/25-28: IROHVA/ Gilbert, MN
6/9: Park Jeep Day, Burnsville, MN

Well, it's been kinda quiet around here for a while, but the C4C Jeep has been busy. Memorial weekend it was on display at the Gilbert park. Last weekend it was shown at Park Jeep Day at Park Jeep. In between all of that it has been pampered over at Burnsville Offroad. They have added many new items to it. Front & rear bumpers from Fab Fours. The new interior. A new Bestop soft top. Brand new exhaust. New aftermarket steering wheel. The list goes on & on. Again we owe all of this to Burnsville Offroad.............................Thank You There are still some things to come, even a matching spare tire & wheel. But I think you'll all agree that this is one totally kick ass jeep.

Can't wait to see it live check it out now
with a few pics of the build starting last October.

The Themes of the show was red, so we certainly fit in

The next stop will be Gilbert for Memorial Weekend

At park jeep day, we had quite a good turnout.

Note the new ORO Lite Dots that Offroad Only donated!

We just have to show this off: It's a 6.1L Hemi conversion in an `07 Jeep JK. This is Burnsville Offroad's specialty. If you ever get a chance to see one in person, you'll be truly impressed.

Here it is the day of the big give away. The jeep raised over $15,000 for the MS Society.

Here are the happy winners picking it up.

Congrat's Elizabeth & Jason!

Update: We borrowed the jeep to display at the Sportsman Show in St. Paul in January. It still looks great but, you can sure tell the new owners are using it for it's intended purpose!
