TimV said: (quoted from post at 18:44:33 04/11/11) Very nice--what's the Jeep? I had a '76 CJ7 that looked very close to that. Just got rid of it a bit over a year ago to a kid who did a complete restore on it with his father over last winter.
That's a '74 CJ-6. It was a barn find that I got about 5 years ago and has become a family pet. It had been sitting in that barn for about 10 years when I came across it and offered to buy it.
Here's what I found. I had no idea about what a cj-6 was at the time, but it's pretty much a cj-5 with an additional 20" wheel base. It comes in real handy having that extra room in the back. Since we've bought it and gave it allot of TLC it's kept the kids and myself pretty happy. It's hauled out a few deer and allot of wild hogs from our hunts. This weekend was it's first fishing trip though. My girls love to ride on the seats in front but I took them off to add a receiver and bumper rack to the front. I need to get back to the shop and find away to add the seats where I can take them off again easily. Just more stuff to do. The first time I saw it with those seats I thought I was looking at something straight out of the move Hatari!
