Honda riders represent! :) Had an ST1300 but don’t do street bikes any more, and that JKU turned into a JT.If we fill up that space then we can't get our OTHER toy out of the garage...

2019 Jeep Compass Trailhawk...I know it's not a Wrangler, and I own a 2000 Wranger TJ...but the Compass is far more comfortable and hasn't let me down yet...
New Jeep owner here! Sold my RAM 1500 and picked up this beaut! Loving it so far. Can't wait to get my RTT and the rest of the gear mounted up!

Created a new Jeep owner to represent today! The boy found this old Gladiator and conned me into buying it for him :) Going to be a project! But I LOVE IT! And it made the two hour drive home :)

1965 Jeep J200 Gladiator, Tornado 230 with six slightly miffed squirrels. Manual 3 speed column shifter (glad I cut my teeth on a column shifter).
Has some rust, a couple/few spots that will need new sheet metal, over all it is very solid.
Discovered alternator is out today, has a speed dependent ticking in the front driver’s side wheel so I ordered some bearings today...
All door and window seals are trash and will need to be replaced.
And the exhaust is trash.
It is so much fun to drive and it puts a smile on every guys face that sees it. Got a lot of enthusiastic waves and thumbs up toodling around the neighborhood today. Pics coming as I collect them.

We like the colors and two tone paint job but it is the worst crap job ever. Thinking of keeping the two tone colors as they are when a real paint job is applied. Two different orange colors on there and much was not masked or removed when the pain was applied.
Six put out squirrels (dead alternator, battery on the charge)
NEW door and window seals! Temporary until I can get it in the garage. All the world's water seems to funnel through the cab ;)

And we have a new mechanic? Or is that a chew mechanic? :) He was super interested in what we were looking at.
Seriously, lots of space under the hood!

Thats awesome, looks like it is all there and mechanically original which is a massive win in itself.
Very, very cool truck, congrats

Someone pointed out that the J200's headliner may be asbestos. I'll protect, hose it down w/ water and get this out and bagged ASAP. Just wondering if anyone can confirm that this is likely asbestos (I think it is).
