Those MTRs will last for a while, they've got decent tread right now. I want some KM2s though. Saw another TJ with them today and I was envious.

Toys are good! No removable top and they're hard to keep low with a stock frame. Mine was pretty low though, but it had cut fenders.

Thanks for the comments guys.


:D

Always good to see folks with Jeeps who're willing to actually drive them how they're meant to be. Remember, pavement is for minivans!

(Mine's a '80 cj-7, original 304 v8 (rebuilt at least once), dual exhaust, holley carb, edelbrock intake, various other mods, 4" suspension lift, 33's, and a soft-top that I never put on - it only sees the sun now!)

Any pics of the CJ7? I was looking at those too, but couldn't find one in good shape around here.

I'll find some to put up. It's in overall good shape. Couple small rust spots. The inside is all rhino lined, so I can just hose it clean. I do need to get around to painting it though (it's, uh, purple & yellow... was when I bought it, I've put the $$ into it elsewhere)

It's all good, but you don't have to lie about the purple and yellow. I know you painted it like that the first week you had it.

Hah, no, it really was this color when I bought it... 10 years ago this year!

Here's probably the best pic I could find of it. Haven't done anything big to it since this was taken. Don't have an under the hood shot, it's dirty enough under there right now I'm not going to bother, either!



When I do paint it, I think a dark candy apple red & black trim.

You weren't kidding on the paint! Red and black would look great on there.

when you quote somebody delete the image code so the pictures aren't repeated and only the text is quoted. (saves some bandwidth for Mike and it irks the hell outta me when people quote pics.)
