    I used to own a couple of Jeeps of this vintage - here's the first

    Here I am at 19 with my sister and my Jeep, which I bought about 6 mo after starting work.

    I later went to work for the dealership where I bought the '73, and bought this '75 CJ-6 (shown with my Dad's '72 Ford).

    As you can see, I wrecked it, sliding off an icy road in AZ. It was later repaired with all new sheet metal, and painted Reef Green.

    nice vintage shots
    even though it's old post, still shows what a roll bar can do for you
    even when you're not off road
    cage might have saved the windshield frame
