I constantly worked on my CJ's, I had 3 in a row with the 72 SBC powered CJ-5 being my last. I like the way a XJ/MJ wheels better than the way a CJ wheels. Plus XJ's are cheap and disposable.

 

Very true. Cheap and disposable. I like that. Haha

 

Are either star city or parts unlimited pick n pulls? I've heard of both of them, but not been to either.

 

The only pick and pull near Roanoke is Cunningham's in Rustburg

 

Bahh I figured, I heard from my trainer/supervisor at work that old dominion is switching over to be a pick n save though? Who knows, guess we'll find out when it happens right?

Last couple times I've been to cunningham's their xj selection has been lacking. I think there were only 2 or 3 last time I was there. At least they're semi-close though

 

I have a YJ for sale if anyones interested... 2k cash. Runs and drives no issues.

 

sorry to revive an old thread but when I'm in cunningham's in rustburg I trip over all their XJs so I'm confused where you were looking, you said 2 or 3 and I thought maybe in one row haha

 

When I go up they usually have 10-15 on hand. Old Dominion is switching over to a pick and pull

 

they usually have plenty of XJs to pick from, where is old dominion?

 

Maybe it is just around me.. but you can find someone elses fiberglass project that needs finishing for under 2500, which is the only way I would own a cj.

Also keep in mind that if you plan on building one from scratch you are more then liely better off by starting with a chevy/ford/jeep parts rig for drivetrain.. by a set of frame rails, and a glass or aluminum tub


For that matter why not just modify a TJ to look like a cj

 

On 460/Orange Avenue in the Vinton area(east of Roanoke)

Old Dominion is owned by Cunninghams
