Seventeen-year-old Griffen Rhodes stands next to his recently restored 1976 Jeep Renegade at the gathering of Oklahoma Jeepers in Sapulpa before they set off for Arcadia, by way of Route 66.
Griffen Rhodes, owner of this 1976 Jeep Renegade that he and his father have been spent the last year restoring.
Rhodes’ Renegade—which he affectionately named Rene—is something of a spectacle because of its age, but that doesn’t stop the others from admiring his handiwork and commenting on the cool factor for having a restored Renegade in the first place. “He doesn’t deserve it,” said a smiling William Briggs, a leader in the Oklahoma Jeepers group, who takes care of their Facebook Page and let Sapulpa Times know where to be to see this cacophony of bug-eyed beauties before they hit the road to the Big Red Barn.
