    Default 2 door longwheelbase Wrangler JK and Military JK sighting

    I saw today in Detroit on I-75 a rescue green 2 door longwheelbase Wrangler. Proportion-wise it looked like a regular Unlimited, but the hardtop clearely went all the way to the front door. Two what appeared to be fixed windows in the side of the hardtop. A couple minutes later a sand colored JK followed. No window tint, skinny tires and considerably higher off the ground than a stock JK. Both Jeeps headed south while I was going north, so I could not take any pictures.

    Both looked very good; let's hope they make it to the dealership one day!!!

    They are nice looking. There's been pics of them floating around the internet for a while. Rumor is they're being made for the Egytian military or something.

    If they had leafs in the rear & D60's, they're the Egyptian models. If not, hopefully is a JK truck in disguise!!!

    They've been making them for the Egyptian and Israeli armies for a while now.
