The only things NOT from the factory(sorry had to capitalize not I've been told to many time that I'm wrong LOL) is tires, things that have been painted/ undercoated orange (it was a 70's thing) and the engine had to be worked on ( ring problem) and the guys did me a favor by reprinting it CAT green(not happy about it) and the red breather. I've had to touch up some garage rash over the rear wheel and the front edges of the hood but that's it. The top has had it now so this summer she gets a new top made..not a black best top. I'll have to anti up for a custom white one. Checked on it last year and ouch! Over a grand...ok 1400.. Thanks for the compliments!
I remember going down to Toledo with my parents and going down a line of Jeeps that we could buy. If they didn't sell they were going out of the country. Our choice was between a 6 and the Jeepster so I guess we saved a Jeep from slow death in South America.
(The jeep hasn't been in Reno since 71 it's just one of those tourist plates...LOL ) one of these day I have to scrounge up and scan in the pics from the ghost towns and the mountain run we did back then. Rawhide Nv actually had some building left back then!

Man that's sweet Jeepster porn there!
As for the top... have you asked around on the JCCA site? I know those guys had gotten together to work with a top maker to have some turned out. Not cheap but FWIR the quality was top notch and the actual value comes out in that.
And are you still running the factory baby brakes and non power assit? Wow! Ballsy!
Sucks the shop painted over the factory engine color. That is a very difficult color to match, a bone of no small contention in the Jeepster world.
