One Owner...Twice: 1969 Jeep Gladiator

I'm no St Nick, but I've got a few lists at home.  One is a list of things that I don't want to do under any circumstances.  Top on that list are things like, #14: Never attempt to circumnavigate the world in a bathtub full of scorpions, #2: Never attempt to infiltrate a Daesh stronghold with two of your best friends dressed like characters from the Blue Man Group, and #1: Never visit your local Department of Motor Vehicles.  The problem isn't that I don't appreciate the civil servants who carefully guard our roads from abuse by arbitrarily applying an arcane set of rules...no, the problem is that I don't like waiting in 4 hour lines before being told to wait in a chair with a number like I'm waiting for the butcher to slice some meat. Because, when my number is called, I don't get pastrami -- instead I get a person who may or may not let me transform a commercial box truck into an RV, or may or may not be cool with my lame excuse for taking more than 10 days to register a car.  And the problem always starts when I sell a car and buy another used car...so why do I keep doing it?  Why do I spend so much time at the DMV?  Probably because neat stuff like this next car keeps popping up for sale.  Find this 1969 Jeep Gladiator here on eBay bidding for $10,100 reserve-not-met with 4 days to go, located in Clinton, MO.

15k: Barney The Gladiator : 1978 Jeep J10 Pickup

Jeep's full sized pickup was first badged as the Gladiator and later as simply the Jeep Pickup.  The Gladiator Pickup was based on the SJ Wagoneer chassis and as a result is a giant beast of an automobile.  This J10 version is not only the size of a dinosaur, but it is also purple.  Find this 1978 Jeep J10 Pickup offered for $13,900 buy-it-now or best offer on ebay, located in Southport, CT with 5 days to go.  Tip from Ignatius Reilly.

5k: Mean Green Fighting Machine: 1968 Kaiser Jeep M-715

In case the Jeep Gladiator (pickup version of the Wagoneer) isn't manly enough for you, there is always the M-715 military version.  The M-175 is going to suck down fuel like a SoCal wildfire, but it should make for an interesting off-roader when it runs.  Find this 1968 Kaiser Jeep M-715 for sale in Houston, AK for $4,000 via craigslist. Tip from ANCMatt.
