Jovie's previous owner left me with a Python Security System/Remote Start and a steering wheel lock because the Jeep kept getting broke into in St. Louis. Also, the last time it was almost stolen they busted the steering column so I also inherited an annoying sqeal every time I make a 90* turn.

Most cars from MN look crappy cuz of the salt, how is here better than MI?

1998classic

Mine came with bad front brakes, bad ball joints, bald rear tires, rusty rockers, and lots of other rust that was painted over. Only paid $700 for it though. On the good side, I got a mixed country CD he left behind.

Destination XJ

Siliconed on flares. No controls on the power seats and a leak in the roof. Bad leafs, and some hidden rust on rear quarters.

I got a clean titled jeep.... somehow. I have notice that the driver door at some point in time was ripped off,
the PO thought cutting the stock wiring pig tail for the radio was a good idea,
No radio,
sand everywhere (looks like the vehicle was wheeled) I got it stock with saggin springs.
Cracked exhaust manifold.

BUT The 4 wheel works flawlessly, gets 22 mpg, strong motor (leaves my buddies 2000 zj like he put it in reverse.) no knocking pinging and rear wiper works.
I love it.

ptonjeep
