    Hi all

    I wanted to built some sort of windjammer for the jeep. Mainly because the exaust fumes are coming back at me and my wife tells me that I have the ``jeep smell``.

    Here are some pics of the process. First I found a 3/8 plywood of the right size, I then traced it, then cut with a jigsaw. Then I took some false leather that was left over from my half doors. I also got a window, in a material similar to the soft-top window.

    I did not try it yet, more on this later. But I like the look a lot...

    Thanks for listening

    Nice. I like the idea of the plywood, it will save from all the flapping around you hear.

    Keep working, soon you will have a half-cab!

    I seem to recall some people just angling the exhaust out the rear corners to keep the exhaust from coming back in.
