Keep an eye for any late model leather seats. I'll straight up trade my leather seats for a set of late model leathers.

I don't know if there still available but a couple of weeks ago I saw a guy selling two full size waggy's $700 for both on craigslist near Charlotte I could try to find the ad if you like. I think the only catches were you needed to take both and one didn't have a title.

thechief86

He already has one jeep that doesn't move in the yard, he doesn't need two.

As a matter of fact, BOTH Jeeps got driven today.

Moving them so you can cut the grass under them doesn't count!
Either that or your better half took pitty on them and showed them some attention.
bigalpha
September 10th, 2009, 07:24
Please, I just cut the grass around them. The 3 is in the shop, so the XJ and MJ got driven.

Which one pulled the other one out of the weeds?
bigalpha
September 10th, 2009, 09:57
My driveway is slightly on an incline so they both rolled back out of the weeds no problem. Steering was a little tight - had to get a neighbor to help turn the steering wheel.

James is a great guy to deal with. He's got all kinds of different Jeeps in his yard, at least he did the last time I was down there, which was around 5 years ago. His son also works with him.

Ok I'm back at home now. I was there about an hour or so. TheChief check your PM for your items, he's got them, or most. the condition is up to you. I think its worth a drive there?? I'll be back for sure.
Well no lifted XJ's, actually 1, its a customers, he's fixing it, wrecked. LOTS and LOTS of old 50s, 60s, 70s, Jeeps. TONS of YJ's and CJs, couple of TJ's...dont think there for sale?? All the parts you can think of! Super nice guy, He used to wheel with his son, who also works there. He wasent in today. They have 2 Cj's lifted, locked, geared, etc. They used to ride Tellico lots he said. now that its closed he hasent been in a while. Asked if we would please call he on our next trip, i told him about Mtn Side Sept 19-20 (http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1003514) (DONT FORGET EVERYONE!!:spin1:) He said call a little closer to the time and he'll talk with his son and see if they can go. Sounds like he'd like too...i think. Anyway, id call this guy and see if he's got what you need.....super nice guy. He took me around the yard on the cart to "show me what he's got" during our hunt for the items posted here. Said he has about 500 jeeps there, my guess maybe 75 or so XJ's, Several Waggys. Ships UPS everyday...there was a stack of stuff to go out the day i was there FYI.
Happy hunting!
