well i got me a mance!! i've wanted one of these little beasts for a long time now and i finally got one. i found it on craigslist for $1300, called the guy up, and finally went to test drive it tonight. i looked it over good, hardly any rust, needs some exhaust work and i think a brake light switch. me and a friend bull****ted around a little and kicked some tires and finally got the guy down to $1000 and i drove it home.
it's now sitting out front and i'm tickled pink. i can't wait to turn some wrenches on this thing.
for now i just wanna fix the exhaust and brake lights. any other little minor issues i find. i don't like the idea of not having a temp gauge(which didn't come factory)so i might throw that on there.
eventually i want to swap the front clip to a 97+ xj fenders/grill and if possible i wanna swap to newer tail lights as well. in time i also wanna make it 4wd, i'm gonna save my lp30 out of my zj to throw in it since it's free and i don't plan on wheeling this thing, i just want 4wd for snow and any other time i might possibly need it.
overall i'm just happy to own it and drive it for now. in time i'll slowly customize it to be mine. i'll try to get some better pics tomorrow
