Warranty: Vehicle does NOT have an existing warranty
Trim: Basic

Frame-off restoration completed in 2012.  Frame professionally sandblasted and painted.  Rebuilt both axles (Dana 44 rear and AMC 30 front).  New 3.53 gears, leaf springs and shocks.  New Jasper engine (@3000 miles on it now).  T 176  4 speed manual transmission.  1989 Wrangler tub, undercoated with Eastwood product and inside was Herculined.  Professional paint job on the outside.  Painless wiring kit.  All new gauges.  New gas tank, brakes, all stainless brake lines, fuel lines, even flexible brake lines are braided.  1" body lift, 1.5 inch shackle lift.  33" Pro Comp tires.  Vintage seats with "CJ" logo (pictured).  I used an HEI distributor, so no coil.  All accessories (PS pump, alternator, starter, radiator, power brake booster) brand new. Even lower steering column is new.  PSC hi performance steering box.  Clearly, no expense was spared.  Everything on this Jeep is either new or refurbished.  Odometer:  Before the restoration, the old Jeep had 126,000 miles.  I used the best odometer I had, which stated 16,901.  It now states 19,800 miles.  So I have put @3000 miles on it since completion. This is one of the cleanest Jeeps you'll find.  Not used off road, but she'd love to go :).  Only a few minor issues:  Gas gauge does not work.  Worked for awhile, then quit.  Small paint bubble on passenger's door (pictured), couple other nicks and scratches, nothing major.  $20,000 invested in this project, reserve price is much less than that.  If you're looking for a clean, tough CJ, look no further!

Massachusetts man charged $48,000 for a tow [w/video]

Wed, Oct 28 2015

Tow truck operators are right up there with landlords and IRS auditors on the list of professionals you don't want to deal with. A man in Massachusetts has all the more reason to avoid a tow after he was hit with a $48,000 bill, Fox 25 reports. Joel Ramer and his girlfriend were off-roading in Walpole, MA last week when they wandered were they shouldn't have. They landed in a mud pit on private property. Ramer said it took Assured Collision towing company 12 hours to free his vehicle from the muck. But when he got the bill for the tow, he thought the accounting department must have been off by a decimal. "When I went to pick up the vehicle from Assured Collision, he'd informed me there was some damage done to the vehicle, but didn't get into details. He also informed me the bill was $48,000," Ramer told Fox. "I thought they made a mistake." The phrase 'some damage' was putting it lightly. Ramer says Assured Collision totaled his Jeep. "Frame is broken, leaf spring is broken, drive shaft is broken," Ramer said. The itemized bill showed Ramer exactly what he was paying for. Assured Collision charged him $16,000 for an on-scene supervisor. That's $1,250 an hour. The Statewide Towing Association told Fox 25 that the actual industry standard is $175-$325 an hour. The company also claimed that power lines put them at risk, calling it a "hazmat situation." That allowed them to tack on another $5,000 fee for dangerous condition liability insurance. Finally, there was an extra $10,000 fee for an off-road recovery incident response unit. Insurance won't help with the cost of the tow, so Ramer's broke Jeep is in Assured Collision's hands. On top of the enormous bill and busted Jeep, Ramer was arrested and cited for trespassing on land owned by a utility company and disturbing the peace.
