Allow Me to Introduce Myself
Howdy from beautiful NW Washington! I picked up my '87 Jeep Cherokee Laredo about 4 years ago to be a project for $650 and quickly ended up turning it into my daily. This old rig has outlasted a majority of anything I've ever owned before, even with the problems it has. It has dents, runs rough, multiple vacuum leaks that decided to pop up, and leaks like none other, but I've fallen in love with this old beast.
Now that I've moved much closer to work, the need to daily it has diminished some, and I can finally start on building my dream Jeep. My next weekend project is replacing vacuum lines and adding an auxiliary fuse box for all the toys I plan on installing soon enough. See ya guys around the forum!
