Need your input- want this bad! CL ad
I was just cruising around CL, which is dangerous for me, and found this brand new posting. He says he has a 2A and a 3B in addition to the pictured Jeep. I REALLY want a 3B. I sent the guy a text- haven't heard back yet. What do ya'll think??? Also looking at an 80s model Coachmen bumper pull camper for maybe $800 (a fixer-upper!). I can't have both! What would you do????? (dumb question!  )

Just spoke with the owner... he said the 2 and 3 are sitting on blocks, but the parts are all there (however, he sold the 2 grill). Rear axle in 2 is removed, but in the back. Both Jeeps are in a field with woods all around... he is hiring a wrecker to come get them out. No titles for either. He said $800 for both the 2 and 3, and he said he would make me a very good deal if I bought all three of his Jeeps. He sounds totally disillusioned! Really need to hear from you guys...

Missed your post Ryan... sorry. OP says floor boards on the 5 are rusted out and that it has typical rust. Said pics make it look better than it is. Mostly interested in the 3B, but OP is willing to make a screaming deal for all three! Hitting the road to go see them...

I vote for the Jeeps, Skipper, but the problem is you'll probably need the camper when the wife unit finds out!!!

I think he is trying to trump your fleet. But all of yours are drivable right Bill? Sorry Scott.... that one was too easy.

Everyone that has a tub attached to a frame is drivable. The 57 Willys pickup is the exception, but it's not a Jeep, it's a Willys.

Don't. Self control. Finish the ones you have. Gives incentive to work more and get done if you wait to buy another project. Save your money? 
Bet your wife would like me if you let her read my post.
Bill this here is what happens to a guy when he paints without a mask. It's a deep rooted emotional problem that stems from the effects. I had kinda hoped that after George's visit and explaining quantum physics and such to Scott he'd have gotten over all of this but it seems he hasn't. 
George what's your prognosis?
