Whats your badge of honor

My badge of honor is from a 1966 C-101 Jeepster Commando. She is sad too look at. there is nothing left to her. so i put her soul in my jeep

The emblem is a Kaiser jeep emblem. I installed it around the right place it should be on the grill


I am so proud to own it and have it on my XJ

Mine's gotta be this:



I'm about 99% northern European descent, and can trace my family line back to the Vikings. Gotta have pride in your heritage.

That, and there's just something Viking-ish about the Cherokees and how independent they are.

I have Kilroy on my back window (not mine in the pic). My understanding is that in WWII and the Korean War, US soldiers would draw Kilroy anywhere they could. My grandfather is a Korean war vet and a former Jeep dealership owner, and he would put Kilroy on all his Jeep ads.

As soon as I got a Jeep, I knew I had to put Kilroy on!
