Up for auction is a 1968 Jeep CJ6. These Jeeps are rare and getting harder to find. This Jeep was frame off restored by a Jeep guy for a Jeep guy. It was completed in January 2013. It has all the custom touches a Jeep builder/ wheeler would want. It rides and drives like new, because it is. I've had it 70mph in the highway with no issues. The paint color is PPG base/clear Carmel pearl metallic and it is beautiful. This CJ6 would be the envy at MOAB.
