I see you are from Ohio. Where abouts? I must say, when I am in the Toledo area of Ohio, Jeeps are king. My assumption is that if you worked for FCA a JK, JL, or JT was your vehicle of choice.

I'm in a class in Reynoldsburg (Columbus area) and I have seen a handful of nice looking JTs while on my walks around the OFA. Saw a couple of overland setups on 71 near the Mohican area too.

I plan to level the front of my Willys as soon as I get it. @WetWilly - I will be driving my parents back down in October. They are about 20 minutes south of you. Hit me up in late summer and I will do the wrenching for you. You provide the OFF. I hate those noseeums.

When do you have a week in Tampa with no rain? I come down to the TB area a lot in the winter to visit my parents and did some stretches in the military in central Florida - it seems like those stretches would be infrequent and super hard to predict. Just wondering.

When I had my TJs back in the day, with soft tops, I kept nothing valuable in the vehicle and didn't lock the doors. I did this to prevent idiots from cutting the windows to get in (to find nothing). Mind you, this was in decent/good neighborhoods and I wasn't too worried about IT being stolen...

So you like "Jeep Spice" - the middle one? I am leaning to #4 & 5. But the orange-ish hue contrasting the Gobi could work. I am planning to do orange highlights to the JEEP on the tailgate, the tow-a-Tacoma hooks. Might look good.

It will have a tonneau cover. They claim this product is 100% UV resistant.

Ha, thanks - I'll keep my ass out of the epoxy. And try to keep my pants on. I used this product on a Wesfalia Vanagon a few years back - pulled out the past-its-prime carpet and rolled out this product throughout. Pretty simple process.

Still waiting for the Gobi Willys to arrive at Gupton, ordered 3/8/22. I didn't order the bedliner as I was thinking of doing a matching color roll-on bed liner. Now that I have the samples from Monstaliner AND I found a gobi JK in a parking lot, I got to compare them to the factory color in...

Hey! I never peeled potatoes!

Its the only truck that you can remove the top and doors, so it looks different. But to me, that's exactly the point. Your Gladiator looks awesome!,

Top and doors off is the closest thing you can get to a motorcycle- it will get you feeling a little "exposed". You southern guys are killing me with the it "gets a little chilly..." If the roads are clear, it's riding weather!

I went with a gobi Willys - I like the "veteran nostalgic heritage". Wait, I was in the Navy. Oh well. ;)

Interesting, not one Willys on their lot. I wonder if they are built in certain batches?

Just got word that my gobi Willys, ordered 3/8 has an estimated ship date of 5/20.

I just reached out to Daniel @ Gupton. He told me that my Gobi Willys (3.6 auto) is showing a ship date of 5/20. Ordered 3/8.

I think the contrast will look great too. Whether it's Spice or OD Green. If I can't get a near-perfect Gobi match, I'll probably pick the contrast color. Thanks.

As I mentioned in the first post, I pulled the smelly carpet out of a 1982 VW Vanagon Westfalia, (pulled the entire interior out, cabinets, appliances, seats, etc.) and used this product. It is a DIY prep & install, but it's not that difficult. They claim the colors are UV resistant and filler...

The top right sample is really looking pink in these pics, though with a name like Yank My Doodle, its bound to get pink after a while, but I actually think it is the closest to matching Gobi. Here is another pic of it in my hand (also wearing khaki pants).
