1996 sport. Bone stock. $1100. Replace drivers seat, radio, a good cleaning, a muffler, and a cargo area table/cover later and I just need a new windshield and to tune her up

Paid $3000 for my '97 with 137k miles on it, back in 2008. Promptly put it in storage and didn't pull it back out until last summer, when I sunk about as much to get it road-ready. Don't regret it too much. Even though it's got a lot more minor problems than the PO let on (he mostly lied through his teeth about brakes and wheels), it's overall in good shape for a 15yo 4x4 vehicle.

2300 mechanicr special with lift and tires. Turns out it runs perfect. All it needed was a little tlc and proper work plus lots of wiring headaches. Oh ya. Bought it with 128000 miles.

$1,200.00 new radiator, and tune up parts. Everything works pretty well, with just a few minor issues. But most of those things are fun to fix and troubleshoot.

I paid $500 clams for my 95 2 door...bone stock. Just got it two weeks ago and have already replaced freeze plug, emergency brake handle, rear taillight, front running light, changed arm rests, e-fan, and a few other little things. Plan this weekend is to look into the brakes and change o2 sensor. Future plans are to take seats apart and WASH those nasty things...and carpet. Then tires. Just something to piddle with since I come from a long line of piddlers!
