It looks pristine!

I don't mean to offend you but what's so great about these wagoneer limiteds? There's one sitting at my local JY. Is there anything I should snag off it before these crush it?

For me... I like the woodgrain thing. As a "whole-vehicle" it is unique as there are few 1984-1988 Wagoneer XJ Limiteds around.

Now I could use a few parts for mine... What condition is the one you know of?

Next time I go to the JY I can take pictures for you if you'd like. It's nothing close to the condition of yours. Anything in particular your looking for?

Default Off to the paint shop!

In an unexpected sequence of events... The XJ is off to the paint shop!

I stopped by my paint-guy's shop and he just had someone cancel. So ready or not... Off to the shop he/she went!
