Hi Dennis, alway look forward to your videos, I was able to track down and buy back my original Cj7 1985 dark honey color spring special Jeep in pretty good shape . It took me 20 yrs but I got it back. I have been restoring it for the last 4 years and now have to take a year off because of 4 big back surgeries in one. But hopefully good as new after a year. Heck I’d be fine with half better. That being said thank you for the great content , history and knowledge you share with us. I wish you continued success in the future, best regards from Jason in Snohomish Washington.
The Jack of all travels Is it still on there? I’m up in NC and can always use another Jeep or your right, it would be awesome to send to Dennis and watch him perform his magic!! I will have to see if I can find the ad. Take care buddy and be safe out there!
Don Pfeiffer looked again and not surprising it’s gone quick. In my travels I saw a 1980 jeep CJ with 24,000 miles original in a soft top in excellent condition in the Washington DC area at any price it’s a holy grail jeep just ask Dennis
Dang....Dennis love these coffe walks nothing more American than a Jeep..explicitly. a Collins bros..keep getting it done..Guess my wife keep driving my jk Rubicon..she has all the fun....
Hi Dennis, genuinely one of the few videos I look forward to every week, so knowledgeable and your genuine enthusiasm and passion is clearly falling out of you. Great channel/ great videos - awesome. All the best from the U.K. Chris 👌🏻👏🏻
Love to see your videos.ive loved Jeeps ever since I knew what a Jeep was.Grew up with cj5s and cj7s.Bought a new 84 Laredo and meet wife in it.Still got her but not the Jeep.But do have a 93 wrangler we enjoy.God bless👍
The reason the decals are not straight, or slightly out of position, is time. In the time it took you to install that VIN decal, the original installer would have had it installed and been on to the next part of his job. Being inside the car he would have probably had to return to his work station, retrieve some trim part and an air gun, and them install it. Depending on line speed there may have been more to do than that. Source: 30+ year Jeep employee
The reality is that most jeepers are underneath their rigs arc welding with 12v batteries in series beside the trail and could care less about the decals!😂 Good stuff!
Love the vids Dennis, keep them coming...would love for you to give us an idea how many hours it takes to complete the work your team does to a specific vehicle...For instance, many times we see the vehicle before a restoration, and then we see it completed...I can't be the only one trying to figure out how much time it takes to bring these CJ's and other classics back to life. Thanks!
Dennis i love your channel, back in 1983 i bought a new cj5 with the light metalic blue ps pb ac rag top in a light blue color. I then in 1985 bought a cj7 Laredo in red with a black hard top. I with I still had either. But I wanted to ask you if you ever get a golden eagle cj7 in the forest green with nutmeg interior wish the v8 and 4 speed.har or ragtop? Ive been looking for one for many years but havent been able to locate one.
DENNIS HOW COME YOU HAVEN’T DONE ANY BIG LIFTED 2011 to 2014 (reliable years) CHEVY SUBURBANS????? CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF THESE BUILT V8 4x4s HERE IN CALIFORNIA AND NORTHERN NEVADA????? YOU’RE MISSING THE BOAT, LEAVING CASH ON THE TABLE!! BUILD ONE AND YOU’LL SEE WHAT I MEAN. :). KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BROSEPH!!!!
Why should he jump into something like a suburban tho when he’s got all the business he could ever stand working on the Jeeps with both restorations and upgrades, as well as doing what literally brings a sparkle to the mans eyes and that’s rescuing the old classics, both foreign and domestic, and either getting them running again or getting them into the right hands of someone who will get them running and either restore them or preserve them so our history doesn’t die and rot away in front of us!! It’s a much better business model to work on as many of the same make vehicle as possible. That way you can, like I’m sure Dennis does, stock your shelves with parts that will fit a large number of vehicles that come thru your doors which reduces down time lost because your waiting on parts to come in, especially with what’s going on in the world today making shipping times longer than normal on some parts if your waiting for them to be shipped in from other countries. I’m sure if the numbers were good tho, Dennis would undertake any vehicle but it seems his bread and butter has been the Jeep market for quite a long time and I’m sure he really doesn’t see the need to abandon ship in the middle of travel to try and work on a couple suburban’s. His team is also accustomed to mostly Jeep stuff and you’ve gotta figure that into the equation also. The more keeps they work on the more proficient they become which increases their daily productivity and lowers the cost per job which increases the profit margin per Jeep so there’s really many good reasons why it’s a good idea to have his main focus on the one line but like I said before, if the numbers are good enough on something else to do one or two here and there then I would imagine he’d consider it but from what I know about Jeeps and the Jeep market, he’s not going to abandon them anywhere in the near future cause the market is so hot and strong and is why I have 5 of them myself. Take care buddy and stay safe out there!!
Don Pfeiffer I hear ya and get it. But, here in California and Nevada Overlanding is getting bigger by the second and people have a lot of kids still. Everyone is running 35s and up size tires and really want the V8 power to push them. Chevy replacement parts and aftermarket upgrades are massive and the most affordable still. People want off-road capable full size traditional V8 SUVs for family fun time. The 2021 Z71 SUBURBANS are $80k with tax and fees now, so people are keeping and modding their SUBURBANS and EXCURSIONS. Done right lifted models are very sought after and collectible now. Jeep are great but very cramped when you have a family.
We actually have them in production right now! If you wouldn't mind shooting us an email to Social@CBJeep.com, we'll reach out next week when we have them in-stock on the website
After owning my jeep almost 10 years, I recently figured out that I have an 82 CJ-7 Limited. Most of the original pieces were already gone when I got it, but would love to restore it back as close as I can get it to original. Dennis, have you ever had a Limited come through the shop?
Always worried about buying a CJ with new Renegade or Laredo decals. How do you know for sure, it's the real thing? From my understanding the VIN plate doesn't show the trim package. It could just be a base model with lot of factory options added.
Josh Zakary I like how he says only the Laredo, Golden Eagle, or Golden Hawk had the 7PK on the vin plate lol, because my 1980 Renegade has 7PK on the vin plate
Hey Dennis, I’m jerry from California to be honest 99.5% of the cars you talk about or review are not anything I would ever buy if I were a rich person
I have an 83 cj7 and the vin tag color code says 99 I can't find that color code and it has an aluminium tag riveted on with it with letter blocks in middle and letters around the edge the d is stamped out of middle and I is stamped around edge maybe you have seen this would love an explanation thanks
@@scottphillips9717 Not that I am aware of........records for special orders were not kept for future use as far as I know. You should be able to find a spot on the body under a hinge or fitting where the original color resides unless there has been a frame off restoration. This could be matched by a decent paint supplier but as far as a color name you my be out of luck.
@@scottphillips9717 Your jeep was likely part of a fleet order for a government agency, utility company or a regional private company. If you can track down the original owner, you might have a chance of identifying the color name from that angle. They probably painted all of their vehicles the same color. The extra tag you have is probably related to the SRO (special request order). I have seen these with one or two punches or many punches. These punches may have been for specific inspections on the line or to verify special order inclusions like a build sheet.
That emissions decal, is supposed to be under the hood, by federal law. If you open the hood, and don't see any missions decal. Chances are... Is that thing was blasted really hard, in the front end. And statistically... Most people aren't even hitting their brakes anymore. Airbags are not deploying. And I'm pulling more teeth out of steering wheels, than ever before. Put your cell phones down. Remember how to drive. Thank you.
The OCD in me cringed when I saw that the back side of the dash wasn't fully painted. Doesn't need to be fully waxed and polished like the front side. Just fully painted. The inside of doors behind the door panel not being painted also make me cringe...bad!

Mr. Jeep!! I lean something new every time I watch.
When I was a kid the coolest looking vehicles were The Jeeps with the Renegade decals on the Hood and the Firebirds with the big Phoenix on the hood.
Saw a nice Laredo in great original condition on Craig’s list NCSC VA wanted to buy it just to send it to you and watch the magic happy Friday
The Jack of all travels Is it still on there? I’m up in NC and can always use another Jeep or your right, it would be awesome to send to Dennis and watch him perform his magic!!

I'm glad I'm not the only sticker freak around. And were about the same age too.
That 4C Ice Blue Metallic color is an awesome looking color on that CJ.

My best wishes and greetings from India, keep up the good work buddy
Great job and video 👍👍🇨🇱
I need to get one of those fan decals. I've reached over the shroud and got my fingers whacked more time than I like to admit.
You're a classy guy Dennis 👍👍🙋
You're the Baddest of the Best Dennis!!
Loving ur vids!
Good to know Dennis thanks! Wonder if my son-in-law will put the decals on when he is done?

I'll definitely try to give time estimates on restorations in our shop from now on! Thanks for watching!!
What I would sure like to see you do is a J20 or J10 pickup with a 6.4 crate hemi.
Awesome 👍🏾🤙🏼thank you
Wicked CJs!!
I've always wanted a Jeep but the first Jeep I ever saw was Daisy dukes and military Jeeps
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 CONTENT
Hey Dennis great channel! Do you guys ever get any vintage military Jeeps in for service/resto work?
Not very often, but we've had a few!

Thank you for NOT saying VIN number. One of those weird things that drives me nuts.
Great attention to detail! Do you have decal source for 2006 TJ Unlimited radiator decals?
We actually have them in production right now! If you wouldn't mind shooting us an email to Social@CBJeep.com, we'll reach out next week when we have them in-stock on the website

Dennis is there a web site I can go to to see how many of my 70th anniversary jeep were made ? Just so I know if its worth keeping to be collectable.
When you put new exterior stripe kits on, do you spray clear over them so they are in the paint?
💯👍
Be carefull Dennis. The phone light is still on
Vin tag on burgundy jeep looks like it’s been removed and riveted back on
Where does the locking hubs dash decal go on a 1984 CJ-7?
Hey Dennis your lights on on your phone 📱
stickers add horsepower

Josh Zakary I like how he says only the Laredo, Golden Eagle, or Golden Hawk had the 7PK on the vin plate lol, because my 1980 Renegade has 7PK on the vin plate
No radio in a jeep now that gotta be a crime 😂😂
👍
What about for a 1979 golden eagle ? How do you tell ?
THERE IS ONLY ONE !!!!!!!!!!!!!! JEEP CJ7 LAREDO TOTAL BLACK
Am I the only one that has noticed Dennis never drinks his coffee lol?
Where can someone find out about how many jeeps were made of a specialty color for a certain year?
Hey Dennis, I’m jerry from California to be honest 99.5% of the cars you talk about or review are not anything I would ever buy if I were a rich person

99 is a special order color......mine is government strata blue an air force Strategic Air Command and has the 99 code
Is there a way to tell the special order colors
@@scottphillips9717 Not that I am aware of........records for special orders were not kept for future use as far as I know.

Had to skip this episode. Jeeps do absolutely nothing for me! Hopefully some non-Jeep content in the next one ☺
