I like the YJ - it's a nice homage without looking exactly like a military issue. And the flat paint is great.

The Sammi - well, I've owned a few, and I like every single one.

The TJ, though, hits me wrong. It's too shiny, and just seems to have that stencil for no real reason.

It's just a philosophical point. Like arguing Maryann or Ginger. Obviously i would take any or all of these fine vehicles!

as much as I love jeeps, I wouldn't mind owning a Sammi. Never heard any bad things about them, although they seem to be rust magnets. I was looking at sammis when I got my 99 tj which in turn led to my current 05 LJ.

The siny ones are Willys editions

I work aboard MCB Quantico VA, will see if there are any here. Lots of MPs on the base but I haven't seen them in a Jeep yet. Stand by.

I am very curious what company made this green canvas soft top. Does anyone know where it was made? I am looking to get one made for my 79 CJ7 but none of the usual suspects (beachwood, newlife, etc.) have a CJ7 pattern. Even though the pictured top isnt a CJ, perhaps the company that made it is willing to take on the project. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
