    They do have a following, David at ewillys restored one a few years ago. And there is a young Mrs Brady that likes them.

    A pink Jeep? Only if it's a Surrey. A 2wd? Not so much.
    I understand why it's a 2wd. Jeeps back then were tractors and utility vehicles, not purpose-built offroaders. But still, it hurts my soul just a little bit.
    Although I'd still probably drive it, because it's a Surrey and it's cool.

    The Green version was good enough for the nutty professor...;) Elvis had a pink one. I'd drive it if it were gifted to me...not something I'd seek out.

    I thought the stock Surrey wheels were 14" with a 4 bolt pattern. And not that it matters but those springs are awful flat.

    I’ve never seen original “side curtains” and doors with one of the Surreys. With the size and shape of the windows (and dry rot), they do appear to be original. This one appears to be very solid, but it looks like the inner bedsides have a a second layer/skin immediately next to the rear seat sides. I can’t figure that out. The Surreys I’ve seen have used the same license light as the Tuxedo Park.

    My DJ is the same way. I don’t think there is a second layer, the single layer is just built that way. I have always thought that CJ’s were the same.:shrug:
