I lost the gas cap off Wally last month. The one off the tan Cherokee fit real good.

LOL, Jerry, you would probably build a 4 door long bed J30 from two piles like that. :mrgreen: :D :mrgreen: :D

For Old Glory...

The 401 in my GW came from this 76 Cherokee. It is pretty special to me.

I wish we had half those resources! We are lucky to see one or 2 a year!

Duck, incoming!

This one didn't last long. The two prizes were 401 and good QT. Parts went all over the US for other FSJ projects.

Passed this guy this morning in the Land O Lakes, FL area. First J10 sighting for me in probably two years in the area. From a distance thought someone jacked my truck!

Pyro, that J10 looks like an 81 I had for 8 years beginning in 1984. Sadly, it had bad terminal skin cancer by the time I sold it.


Something I saw in the San Juan Mountains several years ago.

This one popped up in the area; does anyone know if that green color is stock, and if it is a stock color, was that color a special order?

Nice find. That color looks like Fairway Green (512, 538). If it is, it would be a 74, a first year Cherokee. If it is Reef Green (560), it would be a 75. VIN would say a lot.


This one had my attention for a little while. :D

Thanks for the info!

It’s 1000 bucks, but I’m pretty sure I do not need any more jeeps at this point, it does seem like a good candidate for a resto, though.

Edit: it is a 74.

Yes, Fairway Green. Looks like it was well taken care of, since the paint was buffed down to nothing - that's why the hood is rusty and the stripes are gone. Has potential ...

Almost had a heart attack when I saw this beaut parked in the spectator lot at the Zephyrhills Fall Auto Fest this weekend. Looked like it just left the showroom floor.

Had to drive into town to pick up some stuff today. While there I got a reply from a guy selling his 79 J20. It was on the way so I decided to stop and look it over. Not great, not awful. Lots of poor fixes and it would need some effort to make it road worthy (safely). Probably couldn’t talk him down much but even at a 1000.00 discount it would be a project. Probably can’t get the wife on board but I’ll ask tonight.
Cool thing is the front clip is from an actual gladiator.
