Oh man this breaks my heart! Good thing your okay! Truly unbelievable!
Ive been keeping up on this build and you've come so far and I have always thought about what if i crashed my jeep or rolled it and I would totally swap my parts over to a new one but that's just me. You should get another stock one, try and get as many parts off your jeep now and swap them on the new one Get a honda for the time being, but like you said you cant have a wrecked vehicle in the driveway. So get a couple buddies and you'll get those parts off in no time!
If you do part it out, definitely interested in parts
Good luck man

Its up to you, I believe your the only one on the forum to have a 99 2-door 5-speed you could trade it pretty easily. But its up to you if you want another cherokee or something else, and I know what its like to work on a limited budget lol

wow man im in shock, im sorry that happened, hopefully they will get that lady and you can get some money, at least you can salvage most of the stuff that you have done to it to use on a new jeep if you get one, and glad to see that you are alright man
My 94 cherokee just got totaled by a 16 year old punk not stopping at a stop sign. He had his moms car t-boned it. Im 19 too an my cherokee was stock luckly an i about beat the kids face in when i got out. I knew it was totaled with 274,423 miles. Really sorry to hear about your jeep thats really sad if you dont get whats it worth
Wow I cant believe this happened. Glad to hear your ok. This is the last jeep I thought Id see on the roof.
If you decide to build another rig, I look forward to it.

Give me the plate. I'll drive up there and kick that dumb hags ***. All joking aside glad to hear you walked away under your own power. I rolled a cavalier about 4 times doing 50. It definitely shakes you up. Honestly I'd break out the hi-lift and straighten the roof out as much as possible, beat the windshield frame into place as best you can, throw a junk yard door on, and try and make it through the winter. Sorry to see something ****ty happen to a good guy and a good jeep. Best of luck.
