1967-69 Jeep-Kaiser M-715, or Jeep J2000. I LOVE them

Heck, one could buy that today if they could cover the import costs correct?

I'd be happy with a Wrangler CRD

It would depend on price. If they were all the same price, I'd buy a newer model with all of the bells and whistles. I think it all depends on the use of the vehicle you are buying. If you want a daily driver to commute 1000 miles to work every week, you probably wouldn't buy a CJ5 to do that in. If, for example, the CJ5 was $15K and the KJ was $25K, I'd buy the CJ5 in a heart beat. If I could find a new XJ with 0 miles on it, I'd buy it. No questions asked.

Well, could. But you would essentially never be able to get it street legalized.

I would have liked to drive my CJ5 off the lot for the first time....but then again I was only a year old then...!

While we're dreaming I would also like to have an origional Jeep Dispatcher. Those were cool !

Man do I ever feel old now after looking at what year your CJ is..... :cry:

I have clothes and most all of my hand tools that I bought new are older than you! :wink:

Make mine a CJ5 with straight 6 and 3 on the tree...SWEET!!!!
And while you're at it, can I also pick up ELEANOR, '67 Shelby GT500 Mustang? :wink:

Not trying to make anyone feel old :oops:

I would also take the Delorian from Back to the Future as well

If I'm picking from something that was sold in America...a 1965 CJ-6 with the Perkins 192 diesel. What a cool truck.

If I can pick something made anywhere in the world...a 2008 JK Unlimited CRD Rubicon with 6-speed manual tranny.

Yup, CJ-6's are neat little things, and are pretty rare.
