That is the s&%t right there brother! That is a very very good looking CJ, steering wheel on the right (correct) side and all. Your front indicators look way too good though. Are they new/old/original or has your bus always in the shed? What's the deal? Mine are a bit faded and are next to impossible to find. I have tracked down a new left side unit but no right side. Not to worry, they're not that bad.
Hey do you reckon your boys are the goods this year against the Maroons or will it be a repeat of the last few years?
