98 XJ. 170k original motor/tranny. Stock. No rust, clean interior. Minor sun damage on the hood. $2,100.00. Talk the OP down from $2,350.00. Lots of new parts, including 5 new Wranglers.


Since buying it's decided to develop two rust spots. Getting painted come spring.

Looking for two more center caps. Just saying...

Bought my 01 Cherokee Sport back in 08 for $5800 with 59000 miles on it. Bone stock when I got it and in great shape. Now it's lifted 3 inches on 31's with 81000 miles on it.
1998 Cherokee sport
-210,000 miles
-3" pro comp lift
-30" Goodyear A/T's
-and a couple ****** straps
$2500 on payments of $200 a month with $1000 down and no interest! Woo! Lol
I love it, owned it 2 years now, never gonna get rid of it. Up to 240,000 miles now and the only thing I've had to replace so far is the water pump. Wheel bering hear soon :-( but can't complain. She's so reliable.

Need a motor and some bodywork along with the dreaded rust. This pic is from a few years ago, once I got it on the road. Now has a 4.5" with 33's and bushwacker flat flares.

$700 cash, PO wanted $1000... Has some body damage in the rear 1/4... But I like it.
Already looking for another pre '91 though... By the time I find one I'll have all new parts in this one and switch them over... Lol

I paid $550 for my '87 Laredo 4x4 w/226k. Lots 'o rust and the dreaded "death wobble", but I still think it was a good deal. After $20 worth of green paint you can barely tell there is any rust there.
