And finally a 1981 jeep cj7 258 hardtop
I owned a black vehicle with no AC and in the summer it took a while before I could cool off the steering whell so I could drive. Now I look for colors that aren't so hot in the summer. I've decided on silver for mine. It's black now but won't be for long.

Blue would be my choice it just shows off the curvers and body outline better!
