Its my girlfriends college teachers. Blown head gasket(is what she thinks), ratcoons ripped up the interior some(left window down last summer), and its got a few dents and dings. Its a 98.
She will sell it to us for $750. I dont know if I want to make it my new wheeler and start over, or fix whats wrong and sell it for some more money. Going to look at it this weekend.
Only downside is its an automatic.

Ill definitely fix it first. Hell, I could swap my stuff over and sell the leftovers and make some money back. :idea:
Knowing myself, it'll probably get beat like my current one.

shit, i traded a worn out honda civic hatchback for the jeep i have now, the honda had over 200k on it,salvaged title, smoked like a bastard, and to top it off i got the car for free, drove it for over a year, put maybe 500 bucks into it (wheels and 2 tires and general maintnance) and ended up with a really nice jeep out of the deal!!! The jeep was bone stock when i got it, my lift was free too! I love getting stuff for free! Its all about wheelin and dealin
sorry i dont get to rub stuff like this in very often

I ditched the light bar, to many low hanging branches on the trails i run, i was diggin it for a week or so, but i decided that i would be better off without it so i mounted a few of the lights on my bumper instead.

I'd say make it into your new wheeler...Even though im sure it will just turn into your black one, condition wise..

If I had the time, money, and a bender to do it, I would.
I think an exo cage made from poop pipe from Lowes would work.

you would be surprised, at least to keep the body damage to a minimum, wouldnt trust it in a rollover though!
