Default Rolled my XJ, need a replacement.

Unfortunately I rolled my XJ over last weekend on the trail. Time to find a replacement, looking at a rust free 2dr. 5spd. cherokee for $2,000 OBO.
Think I might pick that one up soon.

No I only had liability on it. onebigmj from comancheclub was with me and we just wrapped a chain through the windows of the doors and pulled it back on its wheels. alot of oil drained out of the valve cover while it was upside down. So I bumped the key a couple times to see if it was hydrolocked and then it fired right up and I drove it home. It was a bit breezy because the front windows shattered and the back glass in the hatch just fell out. It was a little hard to see out my windshield because it was spidered and the roof was at eye level But I got it home. I have to get the pictures off onebigmj to post up.
