According to the designers, if the Willys Dispatcher should evoke the late 1940s, the High Top draws inspiration from the 1970s and 1980s. The Ginger Snap paint uses a late 1970s Golden Ginger hue, with black accents on top reversed on the seats, which feature tan quilted black leather uppers.

The High Top uses 18-inch beadlock wheels with 40-inch all-terrain tires, and the fender flares used to clear them are a concept from JPP. These have been used before on the Wrangler, designers said, but they're now a first on the Gladiator. The truck's air suspension is instantly adjustable, and power-operated rock rails drop down, making it easier to get in and out.

The front bumper is a modified version of one from the AEV (American Exploration Vehicles) and features an upper rim to protect the Warn winch. Behind the Gladiator's bed is a storage system with dual sliding drawers and lockable compartments; so smaller items can be stored safely inside, while larger loads can be stored on top.
