Got Bitten ..... BAD

Greetings, I figured this is the place to make my first post to say hello and let everyone know what i got in the stable. I started off buying a 1995 2 door XJ for 200 bucks that ran with no rockers and reverse lambo doors (they fell down upon opening). While repairing the many many holes in the floors I noticed that the rails where totally rotted through, bummer. I then picked up a 1995 4 door for 300 bucks that didn't run (fuel pump wires disconnected) and the previous owner just pounded off road (needed windsheild, drivers side window, carpet totaly cleaned up from a flood of mud). Now that i had a good running cherokee that looked pretty good the wife decides that she likes the jeep more than me, so i am down to no cherokee for me until i came across a 1991 needing help (missing rear bumper, headlight panel and left fender smashed from a guard rail, frostplug missing casuing the engine to overheat). Since I have the 2 door that is not fit for the road I decided to swap the engine over to the 91 along with the headlight panel and left fender. My next task is going to be build a set of bumpers, install a SYE, and make a set of half doors. In the middle of all of my cherokee fun I picked up a 1983 AMC Eagle Wagon that is currently getting restored to it's full glory as an oddball show car. To sum it all up these XJs are like potato chips, So hard to stop at just one
