Here We go
XJ is in very good shape 1 small ding that I should be able to push out when I pull a door panel.
I do need to do something about all the red.
Looking forward to seeing this turn into a off roader. not looking forward to the dent in the wallet.

woo hoo
Went out to the salvage yard today.
Found an '84 got the carb and vac distributor, talked to the owner, going to buy the hole thing for 5 bills. It has a manual trans, going to do a swap for the auto I have now lots of spare parts! the carb and dist were going to cost me a hun anyway, so...I am going to strip that *****, the best part ... it has a grey interior!!

I got a 86" 2.8 5 speed a few months ago and its white with the tan interor, what were the possible trim levels on this year? and or possible options? I'm wondering what goes on the blank spots on my dash. How many miles do you guys have on yours mine is at 115k but with the speedo all crazy is that correct? I'm all stock for now.. . Pics are worthless

Rear defrost is next to the rear wiper switch. I'd guess factory fog lights would be one of the other switches near the head light switch... not sure what the other would be. I used one for a toggle switch and the other has the led for my alarm.

Oh ok, I wish I had the rear defrost, I'm going to add some lights and this is where the switch will go, wierd the PO didn't get that option but got the spare tire thing, hmm.. I need to think of something clever to do with the wierd holes
