Meet Project Keeper, my 1997 Jeep Wrangler that has been a part of my life since before I was out of a booster seat. Originally my father's Jeep, it is a testament to countless adventures and memories throughout my childhood. From family off-road outings to weekend trails, I grew up navigating rugged terrains and learning the ropes of off-roading in this iconic vehicle.
When I turned 16, Project Keeper became my first car, serving as my daily driver through high school and beyond. In 2022, I took on the ambitious project of a complete overhaul. I cut and stretched the wheelbase to enhance its capabilities. With one-ton axles and 40" tires, I've reimagined it as a street-legal rock crawler, blending nostalgia with modern performance.
Project Keeper isn’t just a Jeep; it’s a symbol of my adventures the amazing things you can do when you take a chance.
