Default xj to the crusher

its was sad to see my first xj get towed off to the crusher...
i was rear-ended about a year ago and i bought it back for 90 buck. i just got around to pulling the 4.0 out of it to swap into my 85 2.5..i know its worthless but its still sad to see it go...

Too bad you didn't get hit in front, you coulda just cut it in half and used the rear as a trailer.

Were you hurt at all? That's a seriously nasty impact.

i had actually just taken my seatbelt off cause i was just turning onto my street, i was alright though. he kinda hit me diagonal and just ripped off the back right side, tore the rim in half, tore the shock out....i would have been pretty messed up i think if he would have just went straight into the back of my jeep..

i really wanted to just cut the cab off this one and another one and weld them back to back so it would be an xj with 2 fronts...nobody would know which was the front...i think it would be awesome
