First and foremost I just joined so I hope this is a decent forum to post this under. I just found out on Thursday that my wife and I are expecting our first child. With that being said, I'm about to finish a jeep I've been building for the past year. In order to supplement our savings for a baby and nursing school in the Fall, I'm going to be selling this project eventually. Not now (this isn't a for sale post). I'm going to give you the specs and photos, and then maybe get an idea of what something like this is worth to the world. I absolutely will not sell something that I haven't deemed as "done" so we're still a few months out on a sale. So here we go...

The basics:
1990 Jeep Cherokee Limited
~145,000 miles
4.0L I6
Runs great, no missing. Plenty of power.

The interior:
Completly restored with neoprene max4 seat covers.
Black carpet
Black vinyl door panels, dash, console, accented with camo dipping (shadow grass)
JVC head unit - Ipod, pandora, and bluetooth compatible.
Rockford Fosgate Speakers 2-6in, 2-6x9s, 1 8in P1 sub powered by Planet Audio Amp
Cold A/C (to be finished before a sale will happen...im picky)
Hot heater
Overhead command center (temp, compass) in camo
Custom headliner
Quadratec custom molded floormats.

The exterior:
Bonz Camo vinyl from Camo Clad. (sealed with silicone and bedliner accents)
Homebrew roof rack with wind screen, high lift jack, and lights. (Tire carrier to come before sale)
Homebrew winch bumper with 12,000lb Badland winch from Harbor Freight
2 KC Daylighters mounted by window pillars.
Tinted windows to darkest legal percent.
Back bumper and ladder (to be added before sale)
Tow hitch and 4-prong wiring kit installed.
Arrow antenna

Performace stuff (upgrades):
4.5in Rough Country budget lift, with transfer case drop
33in practically new mud claw tires. Cheap but great quality. A buddy of mine runs them and loves them.
Front and rear automatic lockers by lockrite. (to be added before sale)
Front and rear differential servicing
Flowmaster exhaust. Sounds great
Dual core radiator, its an open system conversion to keep it more cool. (195 degree thermostat because a 180 kept it too cool.) also a switch wired in for the electric cooling fan
Posi-lock

The bad stuff to ensure complete honesty:
About 1 in 50 starts the starter will miss. It'll just WIZZ. Usually hits just fine when you try again after about 5 seconds.
The overhead console takes about 5 minutes to come on usually. clueless as to why.
After a rough rain it'll collect water in the right front passeger floor mat (still trying to chase this one down but it hasn't hurt anything.
Cracked windshield (someone before me i think sealed it)

Okay everyone let'er rip. Be gentle and highly optimistic. I'm looking for the price you'd sell it to the kid that has extra money to spend off of craigslist.

Look on CL in your area to get an idea of value. Also check NADA and KBB, perhaps even Auto Trader, value differs greatly from area to area, so what it's worth in my area, might be wildly different to what they go for in your area. Also, don't expect to get out of it what you put into it, mods and improvements don't raise the value like you'd want to think. Yes, you'll get more for a clean vehicle, but you are NEVER going to get out of it what you put into it. Deuce coppers. Nice Jeep, though...

Ill give you the lint out of my belly button and three boxes of Girl Scout thin mints cookies. Final offer

Very optimistically, assuming everything is in top notch shape I'd plan to get maybe 4k out of it to the right buyer. Obviously, the high school redneck kids are going to love the over use of camo so they might actually be willing to pay a premium of 4k for it. You're not in a rust state so a clean body shouldn't go for outrageous prices.

I'd ask $4,500 for it and hope for the best. That's being generous.

With that said, I'll give you $1,400 for it.

Sadly nobody will pay even close to full value for your upgrades.

Bring it to California. I admit it might take a while to find a buyer with all that camo inside and out but you could get $6,000-$6,500 fairly easy. Without all the camo you could get a thousand more but that's just a regional thing.

Grip

$3,700 at most.

You're in Texas, the rednecks should eat that camo up, I'd say $3000.

I've got to admit I laughed at most of these responses. Thanks for all of them. I definitely come from a community of straight up Texas deer hunting rednecks. Being so closed off from the rest of the world I never thought about how the other 99.99999% of the jeep world probably has nothing to do with hunting.

A lot of us hunt... Just don't wear camo 247 there were plenty of camo rigs down at Fort Polk (Louisiana) I bet you could get maybe 5k there. Maybe 2500 here.

McCaffrey

I'm a California city boy and I kind of like the camo, but what is this hunting thing you speak of? Is that a sushi or soy based food?

F1Addict

I think it's like... a seaweed. And you have to go into the forest and chase it with a gun. Well, that's like what they said on TMZ, anyways.

I have no objections to the camo on the outside, I really like the black with the camo. I fear my eyes would tire of it on the inside, though.
