On the way to half a million..
Picked up a toy about a month ago, stole it for a couple hundred dollars and drove it home 15 miles doing 4grand at 20 mph.. needless to say I put alittle loving into the jeep and this is what you have..
Had newish brakes, Tires have about 2k on them, new axles, new exhaust..
Replaced governor solenoid and switch.. shifts like new
Fresh detail, some suspension work, some interior work..
Still needs a little more tlc but it doesn't know how to react to being spoiled.
Oh btw.. it has 356,000 miles =]
The underbody still looks like new.. well no rust..
Let me know what ya think =]
Ha

356,000?!?!? thats gotta be a record. and that thing looks 5x better than mine does. and being from PA you would think it would have some rust on the unibody.

I know normally I would flip it and make some money off it but theres something about owning a jeep going on 400k lol I've been debating whether to keep it or make some money due to schooling and being tight on money.

So far couldnt be happier with it.. I drove it about 400miles or so so far and runs great.. engine doesnt make any noises, shifts nice and smooth, brakes are good..Doesn't even smoke at all. The sad thing is.. my father owns a 95 laredo with 35k original miles and that thing is in alot worse shape with emphasis on alot just from sitting..

Damn. That thing would be in great condition if it had 100k. In fact, I'm skeptical on whether that jeep really has 350k on it.

Lol i thought about it.. i wonder if they would send me anything =p
I was a detailer for 2 years and I cleaned the interior up pretty nice but it still has its usual wear.
Once i get the time to take a buffer to this and actually detail it.. i think i will even be amazed haha
