Please e-mail me with questions or to set up an inspection to see the car in person.
Vehicle came out of Missouri. I purchased it a few months ago and have used it as a shop truck of sorts before I did some work to it to make it look the way it does. It was redone about 10-12 years ago and has been gently used since then. It has been well serviced and upgraded with a YJ 4.0Liter fuel injected straight 6, which makes it spot on reliable! This is by far the most dependable and reliable truck I've owned in a long time, with 157k original miles.
OPTIONS:
Power steering
Manual front DISC brakes
Bucket seat interior
Custom center console
Full 1/2 Hardtop
Stock wheels with radial Wrangler tires
4 speed manual transmission
4.0Liter 258ci Fuel-Injected Inline 6 cylinder motor
Tow hitch
Flowmaster style single muffler exhaust
Mechanically it fires right up and sounds great along with the nice and throaty exhaust system. Motor has been upgraded to the later model YJ 4.0 Liter with Fuel-Injection. Transmission is solid and shifts good through all the gears without any noises or grinding, with a good clutch. Now as for driving the car, i've taken it out of state several times, and everywhere around town to haul parts. You can cruise with it on the highway all day and I would trust it to drive anywhere at the drop of a hat.
Interior is very presentable. Seats in decent shape (some wear by passenger seat lower back area. Door panels excellent (needs new driver's side inner handle). Dash is very nice with one tiny hairline crack. Overall very presentable for a working man's driver truck.
Underside has a SOLID frame. Floorboards have had a couple of prior patches by footwell areas. Bed is in GOOD shape overall with some small patches near the inner wheel well area.
The old girl is NOT perfect by any means of course so please keep that in mind when bidding. Paint is in GOOD shape and cleans up very nice, but was NOT a $10k paintjob so please keep that in mind (looks good but has some issues of course like small dings, a few touch-ups, some scratches, and the like). Rear driver's side wheel flare cracked. Underside has scaly surface rust as you would expect from normal use. Not working: horn, fuel gauge, temp gauge, perhaps a bulb or two may need replacing where needed.
So overall she is not perfect and will need some form of TLC depending on how nice you want it to be and what you plan to do with the car. Please note, I cannot remember every single issue with the car, nor do I know everything wrong with it, as it is after all over 30 years old so keep that in mind.
If you just want a GREAT LOOKING and mechanically excellent DRIVER needing tlc, this is the car for you. If you want a show car, it will need some considerable investment or total restoration to bring it up to that level of course. I ENCOURAGE ANYONE BIDDING OR SERIOUSLY INTERESTED TO COME LOOK AT IT IN PERSON. I WILL BE GLAD TO SHOW IT TO YOU TOP TO BOTTOM SO YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GETTING INTO.

Going high-tech, the 4x4 way
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Is It An Off-Road Adventure Or Just A Walk In The Park?
I remember having to get out and lock hubs and shift into neutral to engage low range.
Coming off press previews of the 2013 Land Rover Range Rover and the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee that involved some heavy-duty off-road rock climbing, I'm simply amazed at the capabilities that these vehicles possess. But even more impressive (or troubling depending on your perspective) is the relative ease with which you can operate these vehicles in seemingly impossible terrain.
NHTSA upgrading Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango headliner fire probe
Wed, 15 Jan 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation into headliner fires experienced by a small number of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango owners has been upgraded to an engineering analysis, the step before the initiation of a recall. In August last year the investigation began with 146,000 Grand Cherokees from 2012 after three complaints were received, but a report on Edmunds says it has been expanded to include 593,299 vehicles covering the 2011-2013 model years for the Jeep and the Dodge Durango, which uses the same headliner assembly, because of possibly 52 incidents of fire.
In some of those incidents drivers have reported a burning odor, smoke or open flames that were contained to the headliner or migrated to another area of the passenger compartment. The culprit has apparently been found: NHTSA blaming an electrical short in the sun visor vanity light wiring, which is routed under the headliner and held in place by three screws. Chrysler began its own probe into the issue when it was first reported and is still looking into the situation while, "fully supporting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation."
NHTSA still mulling crash tests for recalled Jeeps
Thu, 15 Aug 2013Well, no one should ever accuse the government of not giving things plenty of thought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is still debating whether it will retest any of the 1.56 million 1992 to 1998 Grand Cherokees and 2002 to 2007 Libertys that were part of a recall regarding fires after rear-end collisions. And yes, this debate has been going on for over a month. In other news...
The recall dustup started in early June, when Chrysler took the unusual position of refusing a recall request from NHTSA regarding placement of the fuel tank on the effected vehicles. NHTSA said a collision could cause a fire, a position Chrysler took issue with. Extensive negotiations ensued, with Chrysler agreeing to fit certain Jeeps with trailer hitches, which it said would provide some protection to fuel tanks mounted behind the rear axle in the event of a collision.
Part of the issue rests with the amount of data that needs to be processed, according to The Detroit News. NHTSA administrator David Strickland said during a Washington Auto Press Association meeting, "There's a lot of data and Chrysler is being very cooperative in giving us more data." Until that information has been sorted, it looks like re-testing will still be up for debate.
