Well, I did a little looking around and couldn't find anything similar. Thought this would be a pretty cool idea, if something similar has already been posted Mods, sorry, just delete as necessary.
I know I have personally owned "about" 4 Jeeps to date. I always find it interesting to see what other jeepers have had and currently have, so with that being said, lets see your jeep timeline. Starting from the first jeep you owned to the last, or current.

Gah! Mobile app is giving me fits today,

Anyway. I've owned 2 jeeps. My 97 TJ, which I bought brand new, and my 14 jk.

The TJ was my high school graduation present. It lived most of its life in Stock form. Last winter I replaced the tired factory shocks and Springs with old man emu, and added some 33s. Rides better than new. Engine has 170k and counting and runs like a champ. Frame is rusted to hell. Planning a resto or frame replacement and giving it to my son when he gets his license.

The jk is my new project and its slowly forming up.

Nothing better than a Jeep.

I agree! The axles were a bit weak, had a few break until we converted the rear to full floating. They always broke in the most inconvenient places lol. Had some great times in it though. Since I sold it, it has spent nearly all that time parked up in a garage not far from me.

Well for me the Jeep thing started late I was 23 when I got my first jeep. It was a 97 TJ that I had paint Tangerine Green(flip from orange to green) I miss that jeep like no other. Soon after that I purchased a XJ with a 5.5" lift it was locked and had 33's I beat the tar out of that thing I soon sold it for a 2006 TJ 65. The TJ was stock when I got it but I eventually lifted and locked it and armored it up and hit the trails. I ended up selling that for a 2 door Jk (dumb move on my part) it stayed stock for 6 months and got traded in for a 2012 Mitsubishi Evo X GSR I kept the Evo for 6 months and traded it in on a 2013 Shelby. I kept the Shelby for a year and traded it off for my current JK. It's a 2014 JKU Sport that we lifted and put 35's on. It cost me a lot of money and 4 years (I'm 27 now) to realize that I belong in a Jeep and I'll never buy any other vehicle ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520451.421890.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520459.359113.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520467.159450.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520474.678201.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520483.421229.jpg ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1406520493.071946.jpg

Nice, I had an 85 Wagoneer, it was a big rust bucket, but was fun to play around with. Unfortunately I don't think I have any pictures of it.

Thank's Spinuck and thanks to the others who have commented. This one was a 1969 model and only had a little rust. If I recall correctly some body parts were factory galvanised, IE- sills etc. Wagoneers are rare here in New Zealand, I guess there's still quite a few still around in the US?

Not as many as you might think, at least not where I live. But with vehicles being such a part of the culture here I am sure it would be a lot easier to find one here than it would be there.
