My former tow vehicle

Jetmate

Well-known member
I was looking through my albums and got a little nostalgic looking at my old tow vehicle. It's a 1979 Jeep J-10 short bed. It came equipped with: 360 V8, power steering, power brakes, automatic trans, and factory air that still worked when I sold it in 2007. It was originally blue with all blue interior but as you can see I changed all that back in 1993. I bought it used in 1984 and sold it in 2007. Kinda' miss it sometimes !! :(
