What happens here

A radically transformed 2017 Jeep JK Wrangler is displayed as a custom 'Rat Rod' by 'Freedom Fabworks' and 'Rockstar Performance Garage'. This extreme build features a chopped and narrowed body, a custom chassis on air ride suspension, a full custom roll cage, dually rear wheels with massive off-road tires, and an exposed GM 6.0L LS V8 engine. The vehicle is stripped down to its essentials, blending Jeep ruggedness with hot rod performance.

Goal: Showcase an extreme rat rod conversion of a modern Jeep Wrangler.
