Mike your truck doesn't look like it would take that much to get it that clean.
I do know I wouldn't want to clean one after it has had Georgia clay baked on. Been there did that and still have the stained sneakers.

nice collection, i probably have more tied up in mine then you do in all yours. Kinda make me sick. Although I do have the advantage of having a green one. I could use that lower control arm your showing there, I have one that is bent pretty bad. This thing was in accident and they really scabbed it back together.

Yes that is the running joke around my house is that all 3 run and drive and 2 are super clean and one is clean and I have very little money into all 3.

Paid;
$450 for the 96 limited
$200 for the 93 Grand
$1000 for the 95 Grand
$200 for the 97 GREEN Grand that is not in the pics.
$0 for the 94 Grand that isn't here either. (All parts trucks have to stay elsewhere and not at home)

Yeah when I drag the green one home I can spare an arm (get it?)
I have 3 Emails of guys who want parts.

Told one for $200 he can have the whole grey interior from the 93, I think it was a fair deal and then I have the truck free for the body and I can sell the rest.

Did you know SprayNine can clean up a Moldy Green Jeep?

maybe I will have to GC hunting soon. Seems they are giving them away down there. I know if a tranny is gone ppl just can't be bothered and want rid of it, no matter what type of vehicle it is.

So would you like to purchase the one I just bought as is or fixed? LOL
Yeah I can buy them right because around here the shop hears 4x4 and quotes $3,200 for the trans.

Down there? RRAM where are you up? <grin>

My gaskets and filter will be here soon and I am going out to drop the pan and start the operation on the patient.

Oh your one of them cannucks who drive down here in those half @ss built chevy's from Canada and when it breaks think it's worth a fourtune on trade in. LOL

So with the American dollar the way it is you should be able to buy a nice RED Jeep down here.

PS. Leave the Chevy home.
