Well there's more to me than just Jeeps. I'm also a 3 wheeler nut. I picked up a 1985 T3 project awhile back.

Here's the project. Came with a 1/2 another bike and alot of parts.


And here's how it sits as of right now.

(disregarded the KKK on the back wall it was there when I moved in and didn't paint over it yet..)

Only things it was missing are rear fenders and a stater. Has a very nice OEM seat with it..

I can get both fenders and stater as after market parts. Rather easy to find.

Motor has less than 1 hour on it before it was parked 10 years ago. I'll change the oil and pull the jug off to check for rust..


As for 3 wheelers I've owned something like 14 of them through the years..

Like banned, as in you can't even own one? They are not made over here anymore, but you can still own them if you want.
