Seen any for sale?

[RCP Phx]

I am looking into buying one. If anyone sees a good 9ne let me know!

I should that I'm most interested in a short bed, motor/trans doesnt matter.

Id recommend looking on FB and CL. Ive seen a few available in the northern and central California area.

Comancheclub also used to have someone who would do a search and post every available truck and the link to find them in a single thread.

Any specifics beyond SB? Year, trim, budget, distance, etc? They have gotten more expensive but deals are still around.

I did call him but unfortunately although nice it's a "bought not built" rig and hes trying to recoup the money invested!

Yep, he's over on CC and while it's nice not 25k nice. He'll probably be closer to 15k and that's even a stretch.

Agreed. Something funny in his smoking pipe. I get that the comanche was limited numbers compared to the XJ, and not many surviving examples in great shape like that…realistically though, its a Jeep…not a 60s muscle car, etc. $8500-$12k tops if its 100% rebuilt i think is a realistic number if it were sitting on a used car lot.

This one is on CC. Clean truck but drivetrain sucks and it's across the country

I can see someone easily putting down $15-18K if everything is in top shape. Any good used car that's cool is going to cost at least that much money.

Why on earth would someone set that up with a '95/'96 airbag steering wheel? That is the one thing I would like to ditch on my '96.
