I’ll keep my old bucket 65 CJ5. I was never wild about the Wrangler in any of its incarnations. Here is photo of it. Next year I look to do the major paint and body. Any sheetmetal replacement will be piece by piece since it so pricey. It was 225 green at one time. The ID tag on the firewall is still legible and there is some traces of green that didn’t get painted over.

I am not sure about what color I will go with. 225 isn’t exactly my favorite.

The CJ, J series full sized trucks, and Cherokee Chiefs were my favorites. Wagoneers never did much for me.

What a beautiful restore. Those were honest vehicles.

The CJ5 is the only Jeep I’d ever buy.
I’d rather have a Ford Bronco than any of the Wranglers or Cherokees that were ever made.

Very nice! I drive a ‘06 Unlimited with quite a few mods. Love it but would like to have a “real Jeep” like yours.

How much are you asking?
