If that Bantam is in decent shape, it's worth quite a bit. If it's in fair shape, and is restore-able, then restore it or clean it up and sell it to someone who will. It would be a shame to see another one of those great old Jeep trailers get cut up. By all means though, if it's seen better...

One of my favorite colors on the CJs of the early 70s was Apple Green. I’ve only seen a couple of them. My JK was a color called Commando Green (a misnomer in my opinion) that is actually close to the 70s shade. If I build a CJ, I will consider that as a color choice. Another minor detail that...

Saw this on BaT, which brought me back to EP. I haven’t been here for awhile. A great amount of thought and attention to detail have been put into this build. I have been considering taking a CJ5 or CJ3B on as a project. But my ‘66 C10 is in line first. I bought it from the original owner’s...

I have a couple pairs of their jeans and a T shirt. Great stuff!

Not all people have full coverage insurance. Especially on older vehicles or trailers. It seems these days that the bad guys do whatever they want and hope for leniency in criminal court and sympathy in civil court. If a bad guy gets hurt or killed as a result of the actions the he chooses to...

I've thought about doing the same thing with a Buell Blast

Looks great. Like some kind of obscure government contract vehicle. Those Stocktons with the 255/85/16s look fantastic!

Watch Craigslist everyday. Most owners think their vehicle is worth more than it is. But good buys can be found. But, you must contact the owner right away or it will be gone. Sometimes the best Jeeps are at new car dealers that sell another brand. The local Volvo and VW dealers here almost...

Ok, I see now. The pic of a 4 door back seat threw me off.

Why not use a rear seat out of a 2 door JK. It's narrower and the headrest height is adjustable, like the fronts.

Resale is a consideration. As we all have probably found out, modifications are worth nothing at resale unless you find the right buyer.

Just looked. You're right about that. However, you can still specify half doors. But you get no credit for the power windows/locks if you do so. Better yet, buy a base model and build it the way you want. The frame, suspension (with the exception of shocks), engine, rear differential and...

The Rubicon has open differentials when they are not locked. In 4 high the difs are open, just like any other Wrangler without the limited slip option.

As I stated above. You can most definitely get a Rubicon without power do-dads (except A/C is standard). You may have a hard time finding one on the lot, but you can order it that way for sure. Go to Jeep.com and select the build and price on a Wrangler. Power windows/locks are an option as...

You can buy a Rubicon like that. Even with just a soft top and half doors. It will come with A/C and the Alpine radio standard though.

Yeah, they did it on 125cc bikes carrying their own camera gear. Long before cell phones or internet.

Based on some of the logic here, this how a Willys edition ought to be configured. Four cylinder No top No doors No back seat Bare floors No A/C No power steering/brakes Actually, I'm sure some (very few) would buy a Wrangler equipped like that Note that it is a Willys edition, not an MB...

I have professionally carried on a daily basis the 1911 (Singer made, deployed to Desert Storm with), Beretta 92F, Glock 22 and now a SW M&P. For my hand a 1911 is a perfect fit and I now own a Kimber. For daily carry my go to is my Glock 23 in OD green. Didn't plan it that way, but I love that...

In May I rode my '07 Vstrom to my local dealer. After a test ride I had to have one. A new one was waiting in a crate just for me. After some negotiations and paper work the deal was done. I rode the Vstrom for the final time the next day on the way to pick up the Wasserkuhler. Fantastic bike!

My JK is a base Sport. I peeled all the stickers off and put a set of brand new take off Rubicon wheels/tires on it. With 3.73 open difs and a 6 speed, it has gone everywhere I've dared take it with no problems. Imagine that, without special decals. Many guys on Wranglerforum.com go crazy...
