Taco, JLUR, and gladiator are my 3 right now.
So I did get the name wrong. It's JT and some others. My prob is a resto. I might bail into the past and wait for all this to resolve.

Me too, in addition to off roading I need to comfortably navigate a Costco parking lot on a Saturday. :punch:
Nice little Saturday planned. Maybe even bed bath and beyond, I don’t know if there will be time.

I'm on a rhino chaser grille, four on the floor, V8, 65-67 Gladiator, Willy's window. None of these power problems. Gets probably 6 mpg. Rare.

If that's your Scrambler in your profile pic, then that thing's beautiful.
Yes...that is my Scrambler. I bought it new in 1982 and sold it in 1996. In January of 2016, I tracked down the guy to whom I sold it and convinced him to sell it back to me (for 3X what he paid for it). In the 20 years he owned it, he put fewer than 9000 miles on it. It's totally original, unmolested, and rust-free. As much as I hate to let it go again, my plan at this point is to sell it in a few months to help pay for the new Gladiator.

That's amazing you got it back! Are you having reservations about parting with it?

Of course I am. To give Gladiator folks a hint at what they might be able to do with a topless Jeep truck, here's a photo of the Scrambler in The Maze District of Canyonlands from the mid-80's:

Its probably almost worth what he will pay for a new JT. The Scramblers are rare and very hard to find. With a Scrambler in that condition and being totally original, he could get a ton of money for it. That thing is absolutely gorgeous! The most impressive thing is that it can haul plywood!:like:
