    Interesting j2000 diesel

    Odd looking side marker lights on it, but it does look like it has the jeep emblem just on the right side of the lens it's hard to see though. I've never seen those before. http://m.ebay.com/itm/111577929927?nav=SEARCH

        I believe that around that time period it was a popular conversion to do, I have a neighbor with one in his 68 chevy dually running around, very distinctive sound.

          140hp and roughly 350ft/lbs from a 3-53 turbo. That would be cool. I imagine it would be deafening to drive though. If I had a shop, I'd seriously consider buying that thing and restoring it.

            Those side markers are factory. I had them on my 1969 Wagoneer.

            Here is a pic I found of a 1970 Wagoneer with them:

              I thought I could see the jeep emblem on them. I think they're awesome.

                      No you're definitely not the only one. I think I'd put original wheels and hubcaps on it though. I'm just into the hubcap look.

                        seen that in a WA state ad

                        Seen that one in an ad last year, IIRC, Olympia-area, WA state.

                        Super clean in the pics, nice looking rig.

                        Think I'd sell the lift/rims/tires, and go maybe just 1-2"over stock height
                        yeah, Kaiser hubcaps would look good on some steelies, either white or body color.

                        That's Rescue Green (JK Wrangler color), right?

                          It does look like the jk rescue green. Which I thought looked like a bulldogs Expletive Deleted!Expletive Deleted!Expletive Deleted!Expletive Deleted!Expletive Deleted! on the wrangler, but looks great on that wagon. I would go with white wheels and just like you said, kaiser hubcaps. That thing would look so good.
