very cool. I didn't know the Gladiator name was used back then. That makes the JT name seem slightly less dumb.

I thought the first incarnation of gladiator was the j20 pickup...I could be wrong

Mostly a grill thing...

You may very well be right. This was an ad on FB, and you know how people advertise stuff!

BTW, that's one heck of an old school light-bar on the pic of the J20.

EDIT: I went back and researched this. Evidently the Gladiator was first introduced in 1962 and the name was used until 1971 for the J-series pickups.
