Sold it at midnight last night. Guy came by not really interested in looking at it. Started it up. Asked if we could take it for a spin. He drove 1/8th of a mile with all the lights off and then said he'll take it. Sad to say I had $4000 invested into the keep and only could sell it for $900. But problems out of my hands. Now I've still got my wife's xj to tinker with.

Sucks when it sells for cheap. Alot of ppl say that money invested and mods don't get added into sale.

Very true. In ny I may be able to get 1500 for my 01 since its not too rusted and in decent shape but at the end of the day, I never want to thin of parting with her. Been through alot with that jeep.

Oh well on topic, I did nothing to her today. I do want to install my light bar this week finally so well see what happens

Bummer.

I think if I end up putting money into mods I'll just part it out if I have the time and want to sell it.

Drove mine to work. Ran great, until after I got home, and got in it to go to the store. Started acting like it was out of fuel. But its not. Just my luck, the day after I finish fixing problems, something else goes wrong.

You need to come out here in the sticks where people are crazy. I keep getting offers for more than I've got into it. I have about $10,000 into it, and got an offer a month ago for $12,000.
