Found you guys from someone on the earlycj5 sight. We're looking at an '86 Comanche 4x4 as a "beater" for my wife to drive arround town and on the beach. Asking price it $800 and it has 150,000 on a 2.8 v6. The truck looks un-messed with, has a straight body but has peeling clear coat. I've seen "opinions" on other threads on this sight but was wondering what we should look for when we go back to drive it. thanks.

See what shape the engine is in. Some praise the 2.8 but I hate the darn thing. When it finally goes in my 86XJ, I'm going to find me a 3.4
