'73, 75 gone but not forgotten

I used to own a couple of Jeeps of this vintage - here's the first

Here I am at 19 with my sister and my Jeep, which I bought about 6 mo after starting work.

I later went to work for the dealership where I bought the '73, and bought this '75 CJ-6 (shown with my Dad's '72 Ford).

As you can see, I wrecked it, sliding off an icy road in AZ. It was later repaired with all new sheet metal, and painted Reef Green.

Cool!! I wish they still made Desert Dogs. Is that a BlackBerry in her hand?

No, no Blackberries in 1973. Kodak Brownie camera.

Very Cool! I still have a Brownie Camera in the original box with some flash bulbs! No film though....:(
