    5. That Photo was taken about 1974 or earlier. In 1976 they painted all the jeeps white top to bottom.

    7. It’s a 1969 DJ-5 Jeep. Looks like southern California. Lots of sun. Carrier is probably about 20. Like I said, lots of sun.

    8. Carrier’s name is printed on the photo. He is now 74, retired, and living in Spokane, Wash.
    Photo taken in early seventies, I believe.

    10. Can you imagine working out of a Jeep with DPS, packages, etc. LLV’s may not be the greatest, but they are better than the Jeep.

    18. So much for checking out blogs. Went from what year is this photo to homophobic rantings.
    Get a life, thank God I’ve only wasted 3 years in this looney bin.
