Oh gosh...I think I’m in love. What a perfect truck
YES 11 FOR ME ALSO
Great job
@Bryan Ryan I have the same AMC 360 in my 80CJ5, I have to agree with you for over-landing I would go with the Cummins R2.8 crate engine with an Aux/transfer Tank in the back for long range trips.
My Dad has the 1978 j10. Light tan all around, with a dark brown and gold stripe all around, with a goldish brown colored hood. Definitely a beautiful and unique truck.
Want one
This is what i wanted the new jeep truck to look like. Not an ugly stretched wrangler
Amen. And with a V8.
I thought the same.
Jeeps new truck is BS and lazy
@@scarhart53
A simple V8! No sloppy and fancy wiring!
No extra computers!
That truck is outstanding. Kinda nice to see he didn’t build a trailer queen. I think it’s a 10
With eight-lug wheels and a full-floating rear axle? I don't think so. Looks like J20 parts to me.
The Jeep pickup FCA should have retro re-made, W- hellcat motor. 😍Beautiful old Jeep Truck.
That is a gorgeous and rare truck. Very cool. They are going for pretty big money restored now.
Tommy, you said you don't know where these J20 Trucks went,..well they went to rust and dust, quite literally,....my Father in Law owned one, I had a few CJ's in the day(s) and they all just rusted away to scrap. Bert ( or Burt ) was very smart and grabbed this one before it went in a land fill somewhere,...he's done a masterful job of restoring this great J20,..well done Sir!
Yes Tommy,..it does deserve an 11 out of 10.
This is my Dad's truck. His is a 1978 j10. It's tan color, with a dark brown and gold stripe around it. He always gets notes on his car from people asking if he is selling. It's a great truck and lots of fun memories.
Awesome overlander build! What a great Jeep!
My dad had a 1974 J20 (same age as me) with the 360, 4 speed and a flatbed. I learned how to drive a stick on it at 12 years old on the farm. I give this one a 12 out of 10!
You don't see them in the wild anymore as the last ones were made in 1988. Also Jeep/AMC was a distant 4th place in size and sales compared to Ford/GM/Dodge in truck sales. Really by the 80's Dodge was barely selling any trucks as they hadn't been upgraded since the early 70s. Enter the Cummins and that changed.
When Chrysler bought out Jeep in 1987 they decided to kill the Jeep trucks as competition. The fact FCA now has a Jeep mid-sized truck is a miracle, but I doubt we'll never see a full sized Jeep truck again. A shame as full sized Gladiator on a Ram frame with some extra off-road goodies sounds so sweet.
Brian Deiwert if you look a little deeper into it, the new 93 Dodge was what you get when you give Jeep engineers an unlimited budget, but they were forced to put a Dodge grill on it.
Love the old J series and Honcho style jeeps truck. Super clean build
That truck is amazing! I love seeing old Jeep trucks. My neighbor had one back in the early 1980's. I'll never forget it.
Seemed to be more about all of the accessories and little about the truck itself
I had a J10 as my 1st pick-up. It was a classic that I often got asked to sell, and I eventually did. Great truck!
My Dad still has his 1977 j10 that he bought that same year. He too, also gets asked all the time if he's selling it. He's saved all the notes he's gotten from people asking that.
Can these pull a 2 bumper pull classic horse trailer?
@@aintthatthetruthmadeintheu2723I have a 1975 J10 and I’ve pulled medium size mobile homes, 401 8 Cyl engine kicks butt.
Man I love that J20 it would be a nice companion to my CJ5 😷
Love love love old J series jeep trucks. The dealership I still work at I started in 1976. We sold these so I've driven hundreds of them, always wanted one because I think they're so cool looking and tough. They were awesome trucks and hard to find now. Most probably rusted away to oblivion lol. His truck is really nice. Great to see one restored.
We had a 1974 J20 with a 401. Also had a 1973 J10, I think it had a 360. Had a J4000 with a 304, don't know what year for sure. 71 or 72? Mom had a 78 2 door Cherokee with QuadraTrac. It wasn't pretty but it always got her home.
Love it. Brother had a 65 J4000 with the Chevy(?) 350. I had a 65 wagoneer with the 360 and th400, J10 with the 360 4bl carburetor, 2 model 45 2door Cherokees, one had the T18 tranny in it , 4 speed , granny low. Both 360 and wide track models. Another brother had a J10 with a built AMC 390 in it. That one was a monster.
Its been fifteen years or a little more ago that I got my hands on one the factory rated as a one ton and it was longer and heavier in a lot of ways. It had a three sixty and I put the four forty in it with four speed and divorced transfer case. Rugged twelve thousand pound winches and a six inch floor tool box that slide out for access plus duel fuel tanks, tbi fuel injection with long tube headers... deep water snorkel, and topped off the tires with little thirty fives on american rims cause of the fact I know they are way strong. Its long gone as someone who must of needed it stole it and got it out of alaska, a place only able to travel the alcan or ferry but its never been seen again
Love that J20! great job making it a wonderful overlander!!
Wow, that rig is nicely done. Thanks for sharing.
My neighbor has a 77 J20 and he uses it as his plow truck in the winter it’s got a bit of rust and it’s paint job is primer but he dose keep it running glad to see someone else is keeping those great trucks on the road
Are we neighbors? Lol
@@trevorj79 nope unless you live here in Wisconsin
Awesome Truck!
Oh man, he did a damn good job on that truck. I love the three different radios he put in.
That’s really sweet ! My dad had a 1969 Jeep Wagoneer , I loved that thing , it was the deer hunters special !
It's the Twister truck, and another one was used in Termors. There's other popular movies it was used in but it slips my mind.
Outstanding truck! Classic yet usable, and Very well thought out. I don’t believe there is one thing that was left undone 👍
That truck on a scale of one to ten is at least 11. I had a 63-J200. And it was awesome. Maybe it's mastalgia, but I miss my old truck.
Just got to Tommy giving it an eleven as I watch the video, and type this. 👍
I own a 82 J20 that is going through an engine rebuild (401) hope to have it on the road again...I loved this video, thanks!
A+++! Very nice truck, and very nice build! Looking forward to more of this. Action videos are always welcome too!
I'm really impressed by his attention to detail. Very nice mounting of all the wiring/electronics.
Great truck and good job still producing videos during this time!
Wow!! I had a 77 J20 paid $3,800 for it in 1978. I LOVED MINE. It was an automatic with quadratrac full time 4wd. Loved all but gas mileage. Lol. This one shown looks awesome. The Willys 4wd PU was introduced in 1949. They may have had 2wd earlier but 4wd was 49 as was the Willys wagon that was 2wd from 46 but 4wd option in 49
Okay who in the world would give this thing a thumbs down?!?
LJSJIUJITSU people that think scions r cool , like the emo scions 😆
Great looking build, glad it was saved and still in the family, love the look of the old truck.
Awesome 👏🏼 FSJ / J20 Congrats! Love this new video series
I had a 76 Cherokee 2 door back in the day. It was a tank with the 360 engine. It was amazing in the snow and would plow snow right up over the hood! Currently running a 74 CJ-5 all done up.
That truck is sick AF. Wow. My pops had a 77 Cherokee Cheif with the 401 cu. Seeing the gauges reminded me how much I loved the interior.
Great video,..... a buddy of mine had one of these trucks with a 350 Chevy conversion in it and he was running 37" tires and a cab over camper,... he really misses that truck now!!!!
Reminds me of the truck from the movie Tremors, it was a 1965 Jeep Gladiator J200
Jeremy T 1982 I’m so glad you commented that 😆🤘 wasn’t his name Burt too ? Think that was rebas husband name though 🤷🏻♂️
Jeremy T 1982 I know what I’m watching tonight 😆
@@WS1_AUTOS_N_STUFF Burt was Heather (Reba's) husband. The truck belonged to Val and Earl
Jeremy T 1982 👍
Also the movie Twister.
Im going to rescue a 76 one of these in a few weeks out of a guys backyard. Can't wait to get it back on the trails
Loved this truck model. I learned something. I always thought these were called Honcho. Didn't know they were originally called Gladiator.
Cool👍
Honcho was a trim package like the levi edition
I actually do remember those; although I never saw one in person. Huge in the 70s and 80s? Hardly. They were very much a niche player.
Yeah, you know why we didn't see many of them back when they were new? Because they SUCKED and nobody bought them.
Basic work trucks
Awesome! Great looking truck.. very slick build too!
Love the interior color on this rig! Great build.
That’s a really nice ride. I noticed the trailer hitch, the manual transmission and the super clean underside of the hood. Good idea for the stickers so they’re not in you’re face all the time advertising. Find someone with an IH pickup next.
Graem Elliott agreed. Love an old Binder
A friend of mine runs a landscaping business and he uses a J20 as his work truck. It's a beast.
THIS is a truck! Love it!
Man, this jeep truck looks way nicer than today’s gladiator. Great looking rig.
Best truck I’ve seen on this show ! Wow
I totally agree on giving the truck an 11 out of 10.Outstanding job on a very rare classic,that is actually used for what it was built for.Can't ask for more...well done sir.
Nice classic Jeep
I deliver parts for Advance, a local shop has one of these and I love just seeing it.
So nice. I saw one in my town in Australia a few months back.
I have a Jeep J10 long bed that I am restoring. I only wish that I had the knowledge and skills that Bert has demonstrated here. Beautiful restoration. Mine was driven before it was parked and is mostly rust free but in need of a paint job.
You know I like this one! Fantastic and thanks for keeping the AMC V8
Absolutely beautiful! ❤️
And I thought I saw a stick shift? Nice. Love this J series pick up from Jeep.
Must be overlanding at the malls, because I didn't see even a lick of dust on the gem. Beautiful truck, though! Had an '83 Waggy, and parts are pricey and limited for body and interior. Kudos to him for the rebuild!
I owned a 1963 Jeep j-300 with the o.h.c.6 cyl. And 3 spd. Also a 1982 Jeep j-10 with a 360 V-8 and 4 spd. I loved them both immensely. I wish they made them in extended cab because at 6'4" and
300lbs. That is what l need. Now l drive a 94 G.M.C. extra cab 4×4 with 8'bed.
Love that truck also.
Fantastic truck. This guy knows how to do it!!
Best truck I have seen on your channel tbh
In the late 1960's I worked at a gas station / tire shop, back in the times where the station attendant pumped the gas and cleaned the windshield. I recall a guy coming in with a Jeep pickup and as I was pumping the gas, he asked me if I had any enemies. I said "no" then he said, "if you do, buy them one of these trucks." I don't remember what problems he was having with the truck, but apparently, he had enough.
What a clean restoration.
Great video thank you!
AWSOME JEEP..that thing will last for Ever ..thank you for sharing ..👍👍
Beautiful truck. Well done!
great looking truck well done and clean build
this thing is sweet, one of my dream trucks is the J10 Val and Earl drive in Tremors
I went to the boneyard this morning and saw a jeep j20. Never knew they existed. The one in the yard was a little rough but with time and money could be a really nice truck.
That's so cool! My dad has a 1979 J10 that we use to cut and haul wood, but it's in pretty rough shape and it's rusting away. I've always thought it was one of the coolest trucks of all time. It would be awesome to restore it, but it's such a rare truck, I don't know a good place for parts.
Do some googling. You would be surprised how much is still available. I had to order a gas filler hose from Australia.
Wow! That truck looks really awesome!
Great vision for this beauty.
Nice rig brother great job
What a rare gem
That is nice! Always loved the jeep trucks! Beautiful
This this is SICK
That was the best that J20 looked since Jeep drew the sketches for it back in the beginning !
Great build Bert! I have a 1985 J20 and love it. Where did you get those bumpers? I hope to see your rig out in the wild
Badass truck. I've always loved these jeep pick ups
Well done!
that J20 looks great
I had an 85 J10, straight 6, 258, had so much torque it kept destroying motor mounts. Miss that truck, it was unstoppable.
Found a 66 yesterday on Craigslist. Waiting impatiently like a kid on Christmas eve. Luckily the owner is delivering for a Xtra fee.
finally an original Gladiator
Awesome truck!!
I rode around in a Jeep farm truck through the fields and never have I hit my head on the headliner of any truck before. Man that was fun, 45 years ago...
Sweet truck Bert!
Dang this thing is so clean!!! Can he help me build my overlander? Haha
The Holley Sniper EFI really woke my 401 up. It had great power before but a completely different type at peak power with the Holley Sniper EFI. Peak Torque and Torque curve are both vastly better , greater HP and significantly better fuel economy. Its still not the greatest but going from 6-8 mpg on average to a constant 14 mpg was worth the money and effort alone
Love those old Jeep trucks would love to buy one
...I have a 1982 AMC Jeep J-10 4x4 pick-up 360 CID 4 speed manual...Tennessee farm truck...I inherited it from my older brothers estate...95%solid & straight...needs some mechanical & interior restoration...$3,500.00.
My father sold dodge trucks in this time period and I remember a farmer who had a J20 Jeep and I't put any ford or chevy to shame. He loved to show it off! Great restoration.
Nice truck! Great attention to detail👍🇺🇸😀🔥
Thats an awesome truck. Love it!!
I’m addicted to them! I have 2 J10’s and a J20. One of the J10’s is the SportSide model (Step Side) they are rare. My son has a J10 Golden Eagle.
The big problem is the rust really bad.
I had a 1977 J-10 with Dana 44s. Loved the truck but I had lots of rust problems
I haven't seen one of these forever. I see more of the older Willy's pick ups than these. Always liked the lines of the Jeep pickup.
Awesome ! Remember "Daktari" din't they use it..!?
Holy crap that's awesome!
Nice, have always wanted one these trucks
Well this is your lucky day !!! I have a 1982 j20 with original paint not a oz of rust on it! With only 42k original miles on it been in the garage its hole life and it's yours today for only 20k !!!
Here in venezuela we have a lot of these trucks, sadly most of them are in bad shape, poorly mantained, still working tho, and they are pretty cheap, you can buy one with the I6 for less than 1000$
