Im sure im missing some things and I should still have receipts for everything I listed. On to the bad...

Front passenger fender dented- I bought it this way

I did buff and wax but the paint is faded and doesnt look great up close

Has a weird knock underneath almost like the exhaust is loose and hitting the bottom of the truck when going over a bump but when I get under there the exhaust is fine and I cant find anything loose?

It leaks a little oil and im not sure where its coming from but it looks like from the oil filter adapter, I just havent had time to fix it. I always run Mobile1 and change oil every 2500 miles. It never leaks enough to get low just leaves some drips in the garage.

Interior is in pretty good condition, has some marks on the head liner and the driver side visor. Missing a couple little plastic pieces here and there.

Rear bumper cap is cracked.

Has some surface rust above the windshield but none anywhere else- solid truck!

Thats about it for the good and bad, as I think of things I will ad them and if you have any questions please ask. This isnt a for sale thread yet I would just like to know what to ask for this. Thanks

 

It's hard to put a price to a vehicle without really seeing it in person.

Overall it looks to be in decent shape and well maintained. Unfortunately, a lot of things you listed are general maintenance items and won't add any value to the Jeep.

What you sell it for definitely depends on your location. Where are you located? I live in Iowa and IMO, this would sell in the ballpark of $2500 in my area if it's as described and based on the pictures. I'm sure someone else will chime in, but as I said before location is a huge part.

 

I'd put a ballpark figure of $2,000-$2,500 on it here in NH/MA.

 

In Montana, there is one setup similar to yours at a local car-lot with a sticker of 8,000 on it lol. I have seen really nice ones go on Ebay for upwards of 10,000. The average run of the mil stock XJ here goes for between 1000-3500 depending on condition. I would bet you could get 4000 here from the right person. Alot of bad winter weather and places to use them make Jeeps/Subarus expensive here.

Down in Louisiana I bought one similar to yours for 800$.

It is really hard to tell. Look on CL in your area, find one in similar condition and add 1000 for your modifications. Someone will probably try to haggle you down and then its up to you!

 

I bought mine bone stock for $3200.

 

Thanks for the input guys!

 

Paid $1800 for my 99 with a 3" lift and good overall condition.

 

1996 Cherokee Sport
167,000 miles
Good condition
KBB private party = $1883.00 USD.
KBB trade in value = $788 USD.

 

Ha, if I wait long enough op will be paying me to take it.

 

Lol

 

I actually just looked it up on kbb and put in all the correct info for my truck and fair market price came to $3700 and retail is $4200...

 

Location is a huge factor. Depending on which CL city I look in, prices vary immensely. I could see it selling for $1000, or I could see it selling for $3000.

 

Well there ya go!

 

It all depends on what you enter and what doesn't count for anything, what really means a lot is loan value. What condition did you enter fair or good?


Also KBB values aren't what matters, what matters are the ones shown in NADA the book banks and dealers use and there are very few adds for anything.

 

My rule of thumb for craigslist is KBB divided by 2.
