Wow, it even has a frame. Meh, frames are for panzies. :D
That's pretty cool.

I've been looking at it for a couple of years now. I just can't get myself to fork out the 3k for one though or even the $300 for just the body. That's more then what I paid for my real XJ... running.

wow, I want one!
what model year is it, looks like a pre-97 with 97+ mirrors? Not sure.
EDIT: nm, large resolution pics show that the mirrors are pre-97 also, just in much better shape than mine.

I've seen this posted up several times over the years - still waiting for the release of a lexan/polycarbonate version. With all the accessories, this think will set you back over $300 for the body alone. If you've ever driven an RC crawler, you know you wouldn't want to run a body that expensive. It is amazing, though.
I just picked this up in anticipation of someone eventually releasing a $30 lexan version...

And my 2.2 crawler... (repost)

That looks cool, but I'm not sure if my '98 is worth as much as he's asking for that!

that thing looks exactly the way an xj shouldnt...
looks like a reformed wrangler owner designed it, look at all the shitty bolt ons, its got the poseur quick set.

I actually like it, I think that after you get the fundamentals and make a solid platform all that bolt on "crap" as you say can be very cool.

Bolt on crap like a winch bumper and winch? Roof rack with hilift? Snorkel that actually is a requirement for a lot of areas? :dunno:
