Default 2000 Cherokee "Alaska Edition"

Heres the story...........Guy at work left this thing sitting out in the parking lot, buried in the snow, dead battery, broken window, and a supposed charging promblem
He is leaving Alaska on the 1st of Feb. so i thought it would be funny to offer him 1500.00 as a joke/ serious offer. Well he was like give me a 1000 and its yours!!!

He gave me the jeep with a 4.5 inch sky jacker lift, 4 32 cooper dicoverers brand new installed on "Bling Rims" , 2 32 discoverers on rims not installed ( brand new), The replacement window, after market stereo, A High lift Jack, 2 brand new head lights and before i drove it home HE replaced the battery....


It has 76,000 miles on in, runs like a top....Needs an alignment, a sway bar disconnect pin, new fender flares......other than that its ready to go



Plans for the future are
Roof Rack
Front Bumper
Rear bumper/ with tire carrier
Bushwacker flares
Winch
