On topic,
I scanned some pictures from Peterson's "Off-Road Fun Cars", printed in
1970. Pictures 4-7 are of Brian Chuchua's Jeepsters, and the 8th is Steve
McQueen. In the book there are many pics of baja racing, sand and desert
off-roading, but none of rock crawling. The rest of the pics are just some
old stuff I worked on, followed by stuff I own or used to.

My 86 CJ7 had that paint scheme on it when it was new. Thankfully it
was green when it came my way.

There is something major wrong with that one though!

The VIN plate isn't original, it came from something else and was just
screwed onto that body.

Stock VIN plates are riveted on with special heads on the rivets. If a
cop spots a screwed on one, be prepared to prove it isn't a stolen
vehicle.

The body tub also has a wreckers ID mark on it and as a guess I would
say it was a 76 body.

The hood also is missing the windshield supports for when it folds down.

I think it is a scam.

The VIN isn't right, it is from a different body and has been screwed in
place.

That jeep is a classic. It may not be a rockcrawler, but a jeep collection
wouldn't be complete without one.
