About The
Jeep Guy

Jeeps are More than a
business for us.

The Jeep Guy is a local custom jeep shop in Utah that started in our small home garage in 2012. It was brought to life with our family's passion and love for jeeps and jeeping. We also rescue and preserve jeeps with The Jeep Guy Museum.

Zach Harkness (aka "The Jeep Guy") has been building jeeps for over 30 years now. He was born and raised in Salt Lake and has been wheeling/offroading his whole life living in the beautiful Utah landscape. From racing motocross, to leisurely riding his dirt bikes through the desert, going jeeping to explore old mines and ghost towns, or wheeling jeeps on trails and tackling obstacles. He has owned nearly every jeep ever made throughout his life and has a crazy passion to rescue and preserve at least one original example of each jeep. His amazing skills and experience in jeeping, and knowledge and passion about jeeps, made him a respected and admired jeeper in the jeep community in Utah and surrounding states.

Our family is always on the lookout for models or years we don't yet have, aiming to preserve as many jeeps in their original form as possible. Our rescue missions to acquire these jeeps are often adventurous family road trips filled with memorable stories from previous owners and exploring new places.
