To start off, I have only heard good things about FN Jeeps. So I found some parts that I was going to buy from a wrecked XJ. We sent a few emails back and forth and he told me to give him a call. Ok, well the new parts I was going to get fell through. I had a long conversation with Thomas from FN Jeeps out here in Colorado and had arranged purchasing a front bumper (similar to the JCR Prerunner), front tow hooks, rear tow hook, front skid, and gas tank skid from a rolled XJ. He explained to me that he wasn't going to be able to get my parts immediately because he had a few other Jeeps first in line to pull parts from. I was understanding and willing to wait and work around his schedule. However, I called him today to make sure our agreement was still good, but totally got screwed over. He told me he sold them today because I never responded. Anyways, he made a scumbag move by violating our verbal agreement. Unfortunately some people today are filled with greed and are steered by money. Apparently it is rare to find a good hearted person that will stick to their word. Has anybody had these issues, or am I just one of the lucky few?

Saddly I totally understand I have been in your shoes before, I recently was trying to sell a few parts and after several weeks of no replys I finally had someone offer to buy the parts saddly quite a bit lower than I was asking which was a discount for there actual value but as I wanted the space the parts were occupying and I didnt really need the money persay I agreed. It took them a few days to actually meet me and pay me and in the mean time I had someone offer me almost what I was asking. I however turned them down because of my Verbal agreement but it was tempting. I have also had people change there word with my position reversed it sucks. I am sorry for you. I have not dealt with the people you had issues with tho so I dont know if you where one instance or just the way the company operates.

I wasn't sure if I'm being irrational or just having high expectations for people. Whenever I sell something or make an agreement for selling, I won't be dishonest and sell it right underneath the original buyer. Idk if I was raised differently, or simply have respect and integrity when it comes to dealing with other people.

And my rig's already up on jackstands in-prep for tomorrow's surgery. Had to leave it that way 'cuz I got hungry, ate a pizza and now I'm feeling lumpy already.

What do you have to do to it?

Nemesissparadise

Well for one wait for the snow to melt off of it, that's the biggest challenge. I also have to finish patching a few rust holes in the cargo area and in the rear passenger seat area before reinstalling the interior

Sounds drivable to me

Nemesissparadise

Lol no drivers seat also I forgot no battery and granted wouldnt stop me from driving it but the heater also doesnt work

Cherryokee

Driver's seat can be milk crate. Battery can be found in mom/dad/brother/sister car. Heat can be from your exhaust. No problem!
