I picked up an 88 xj a few weeks ago. 4.0. 5 speed ba-10. Not ax-15....:/. 157k miles. All stock. Dana 35 rear. Runs and drives perfect. Got it for only $1100.

You guys think it's worth keeping or selling? Or do I build it as a cheap wheeler.

What you guys think. All opinions are welcome

 

keep it, but for god sake dont cut the back hatch off its a chief man which from on here are pretty rare

 

What's different about the back hatch?
And arnt the chiefs the base model ones?

 

no im saying dont cut the back window and hatch and make it into a truck and chief is rare because its original with the stickers my buddy has a 2 door 1985 cherokee chief he bought for $1000 and it didnt have the hood sticker but besides my buddys thats the only one ive seen on here thats original

 

Oh ok. I'm not cutting anything. And I was thinking about painting it original color again. But that would require the chief decals and all that to be remove or covered

 

If backup vehicle, just drive the wheels off it. Fix nothing. You got years left.
