This rig has the Jeep essence of reliability, versatility, and no-nonsense utility, while maintaining a handsome, regimental kind of charm.
It's ready to roll just as it is for Summertime off-roading, hunting in the Fall, and Winter sports excursions; or use its solid bones for a collector's classic restoration or an off-road build project:
Fuel crisis proof ~20 MPG on the legendary 2.5L inline‑4 (AMC 150), along with great overall oil retention;
Old-school power/auto nothing for those who appreciate straightforward, easy to work on mechanicals;
Rust and accident free body, with exceptionally intact original body paint and dashboard vinyl; newer (~2 years) Rugged Ridge XHD Ultra Seats, and a brand new windshield;
Standout chrome 7-slot grille and bumpers, red "WRANGLER" hood decals, and replica rims from the Jeep "10-Hole Wheel" era;
All new MasterTop 25 oz Diamond Sail Cloth fabric skins, removable in minutes for that coveted wind-in-your-hair topless ride;
Open Utilitarian rear cargo space for hauling rifles, dog box, fishing poles, snow skis, camping gear, and whatnot; bare floor pans with drainage holes for a simple post-trip pressure-wash cleaning;
Plenty of tread on all four Michelins, but no spare;
Currently no lamp backlighting to Dash Instrument Center Gauge Cluster. Likely remedy is replacement of Instrument Light Dimmer Rheostat Switch [56001864 OEM] (All else electrical are FULLY OPERATIONAL, such as head/tail/fog lights, right/left turn signals, heater, Kenwood head unit, and dash gauges themselves).
