Vigilante 4x4 is another company taking old vehicles, retaining all of the classic design elements yet customizing and standardizing to produce multiple vehicles per year. I love how they give you the option for engine choices...392 Hemi, Hellcat or Hellephant! This thing sounds and drives like a modern vehicle yet looks like a stock Jeep with a bigger wheel/tire set up and they've nailed it so sit back and enjoy the ride...

I might go so far to say this might be one of my favorite builds on the channel. Truly the best of old and new. Absolutely nailed it. Would love to see their take on the Blazer and Bronco.

@nathaniel1207 Год назад

I love it too. its nice to see something thats not an LS. Im sick of seeing anything cool, but its another LS. I love the idea of keeping heritage with an engine from the same company/family. its what makes cars more than just a body on a frame.

Another video where you knock it out of the park! What Vigilante does with Jeeps embodies the spirit and essence of what I want to do with my General Lee as a restomod! Retain as much originality and look of the original design but with modern functionality!

@briankinnear7461 Год назад

When I was a kid my neighbour had an original Jeep Wagoneer which they used as their 'go to the lake' vehicle every weekend. They had to offroad the last hour or so through forestry roads and sometimes no roads to get to the lake. That old Jeep ha dings and scratches all down the side of it. But it always got them to the lake and back every weekend. I had the opportunioty to go with them numerous times and it was a blast every time. The Vigilante is an incredible rendition of really great vehicle, just improved where the original needed it. Be safe and stay well.

We actually bought a 1973 Jeep Wagoner with Quadra-Trac and a low range gearbox. Drive it from Idaho to Elkhart, IN to buy a 32ft Holiday Rambler travel trailer. It was an amazing vehicle for our larger family. We would actually take it and the trailer and go elk and deer hunting on Forest Service dirt roads. Would go anywhere. Just needed the basic tuneups, etc. This Jeep displayed here starts at $295,000! Granted the custom frame and suspension and the total build are spot on. But $295,000? It will rule the streets of Austin, Aspen and Jackson Hole for all the billionaires who want to show off on Friday night. This guy has totally forgot what a Jeep was for.

Thx, i had a 76 in that Paint Job in the 80's, loved it. Good memories and what a brilliant resto and improvement. Yeah, the AC was actually a dealer installed option and it was barely AC even in Canada.. I got one from a wrecked and installed in mine. I also changed the seats out for a Caddy's seats from the wreckers yard.. LOL

She handled like a boat with at least 4 inches of play in the steering , driving on a motorway in the uk at 80mph was a frightening experience 😂 , but she was a real babe , I loved that car , I’d buy one from you guys today if I had the cash 👍

No doubt, an incredible build...from the frame remanufacturing to all the details- $300k "starting price"... Ouch. The same clientele of those buying ICON vehicles...You can see them valeted at your local Ritz-Carlton or crusing the streets of Abu Dhabi...

@crw3673 Год назад

Exactly how I feel. I was loving the build, until I heard 300K. This is not for the average income consumer. This gentleman, could save half to two thirds of the price, if he recycled out or out source parts from different vendors. All that custom retooling gauges and stuff, drives up the cost tremendously. But to each his own. Love the exterior body, but huge cost savings on everything else.
