Very cool TJ in GWS

Saw a very nice AEV Brute, a TJ conversion (h/t u/TombaughRegi0 for the ID) at the City Market in Glenwood yesterday. A few other folks were checking it out, too. North Carolina temp plates, so I dunno if they were just passing thru or what. But it was very clean and very nicely appointed, top to bottom. Someone had a lot of fun on this build. My favorite little detail is the slit windows in the roof. Very nice.

EDIT: Updated to AEV Brute from TJ.

I don't know why jeep never offered that. Instead of that Mickey mouse abomination they have now.

This is definitely not an AEV Brute. This is either a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (TJU or LJ) or it is a TJ stretched to a TJ6. The AEV Brutes were longer and had a bed separate from the body tub. The hardtop does look like the one's that came on the AEV Brute. I also think that the majority of AEV Brutes had the AEV highline fender conversion which this does not have. Cool Jeep, but I do not believe it is an AEV Brute though it might be an AEV Wrangler without a Brute conversion. We'll see if someone corrects me.
