Just fish'n...maybe

[hey mister]

Evening group,
Well my C10 is for the unsalted season and my winter truck(02 taco w/250k+) is starting to make me question how much is left. Parts are becoming unavailable, even from the dealer. I've had it since day 1 and the only shop time it's had was for a frame recall. I've done all the maintance.
So, that said, I need to consider a replacement and Ixd like to torture (treatl) myself to a 1970s 1972-1978 Jeep CJ hardtop. Suspension as stock as possible, the better.
Straight 6 or V8. No A/C is perfect.
I want to take next summer and do whatever it needs to get ready for next winter.

So if anyone happens to stumble across something close, please let me know.

Thanks.

Location and budget? I'll keep an eye out.

I'm open to travel and budget is less than 8k.

I got one for ya, but idk why you’d want to take a 50 year old Jeep and not only endure driving it (presumably daily) but rust it to pieces very quickly.
Must just be puttering around town if this is an option for you, or have you not driven a 70s Jeep? Makes a square C10 feel like a new Cadillac comparatively.

Oh and stock suspension rides like chit. Most of the suspension is in keeping the tires soft.

Well, not really what you are looking for but..... my wife is going to put her Jeep up for sale due to health conditions. It's the cleanest 2011 around. $12,500.

One of the reasons we got a TJ (coils). I’d still love to find a cj6 with a factory top for a project vehicle.
