Build Thread 1977 Cj7 Golden Eagle

[GoldenEagle36]

I love the work you guys are putting in, my father and I are working on my 1980 CJ7 now. He had a 197? Golden Eagle when I was a kid and I loved it, though he tells me I used to ask if we could go to the lake in the "doo-doo Jeep" (obviously brownish) LOL. Your thread is my motivation, though it won't ever be as pretty, mine will be used for going to the lake, pulling my boat, fishing, and going to the beach.

hah well thanks a lot! and the Golden Eagle package was offered in early 1977 and all 3000 orders were filled by April that year. Jeep said they saw it as a "Golden Opportunity". which it was for a period of time, Glad your dad had a Goldie! and thanks again i still have more pictures to post

Always wondered why the Golden Eagle pictured a Bald Eagle and not a Golden Eagle ?
