For God so loved the world he gave us the one and only Jeep, that whosoever believeth in Jeeping shall not perish in the wilderness but have everlasting joy. Amen! Who here's a Jeeper? My '81.

Mine's sporting the full on 82 HP 4 banger. Bet that 401 makes quick work of spinning those big meats.

Here's my 1964 CJ5. I'm the second owner. Original paint, seats, etc. Runs like a top. This pic was on our elk hunt in CO this past September:

I'm on my third. The current one is a 2014 Wrangler w/ the Willis Wheeler Package. Put a Tru-Trac in the front Diff. Never understood how great they were for the desert hunting I do until I got one and took the doors off of it. There is nothing out there that does better. E

TC1, Your Jeep is to clean, I drive a 2005 LJ every day here on the ranch and it's always dirty,even after I wash it, have decided the mud and dirt are South Texas, camo. My last Jeep was a 93 unlimited, put 300,000 miles on it. replaced tires and brakes and serviced it every 3000 miles.
My jeeps never see pavement, just ranch use, you can,t beat a jeep for daily ranch work. Rio7

Ha! That picture was taken about 2 years ago and it's within minutes of finishing up the lift kit/bumper/fender install. If you'll look close you'll see the wheel well's aren't back in it yet. It hasn't been that clean since. I don't go looking for the deepest holes to stick in but I don't polish it up either. Mine fills the roll of hunting truck, mild play toy and daily driver. It's my only vehicle.

Super nice TC1. That looks perfect. The old ones lack alot, like security for hunting gear for one! Ride quality for two.
