ah, the old J10 - i love those things - them and old school cherokee chiefs.

regarding NuKizer, being that it's modeled after the ol' vietnam era Kizer M-715, yeah, i sure it's a play on words.

very cool truck, i miss my pick up i traded in for the JK from time to time. would be nice to have the best of both worlds JK + pickup. I think the river raider one is pretty much my favorite JK, just cause its still a JK while made into a truck, but the NuKizer is cool as a totally new vehicle. they should start producing them!

here's a shot of a nice old school M-715. you can definitely see where the NuKizer get's some of its body lines and cool soft top from...

back to the original topic of how awesome the NuKizer is, here are a couple shots that Piginajeep took of it in Moab....

thats a sweet JK in the background!

I like the chopped down windshield, its definetly looks great.

Its a 4 door frame right? the one thing I noticed the front bumper was just a stock mopar bumper that didnt follow the curve of the grill, it was just straight. kinda was the odd part of the rig.

Unlike the J8, they made a new bed and just didnt cover up the rear doors, truely unique about this truck unlike the others. I like the curved cab corners as well. Hopefully we'll see it really soon at another show

if they ever put this on the market , I will have one. I love the look and actually own a 79 J10 that I still use.
