i will let my daughter Alex tell this...its her car...... Hey everyone this is Alex Well the plans are to right now to fix it up so I can start driving it in a year. I am going to fix all the interior and body damage. The paint is going to be redone in time, but it is still going to be the same color. Add a new black top on it instead of the original tan top. The old one is missing the back window and sagging in the middle. i am going to keep the inside of the car's interiors tan. I will also fix the motor problems with help from my dad. Hopefully it will be completely done with all the stuff I want to do with it when I finish high school. My dad is going to tell you the mechanical problems with it. that was Alex, well it needs a transmission...thats its biggest problem. the motor runs great just needs a tune up and fresh gas. i will go through the entire car to make sure it is all in proper working order and safe for her to drive.

this is my work in progress. i am looking for a 98+ xj to swap front clip , and drivetrain and all wiring into this mj. it will get hp 30 front with a 8.8 rear. i will also be converting the back to a 3 or 4 link on coils and both f/r will be long arm.pic is the day i saw it broke down with fuel issues.....yesterday and traded for it right then.......gave a 1995 dodge ram 1500 5.9 swb reg cab for it and $300 cash....and i feel good about it. he was a army retiree and was on his way to a job interview. i gave him a ride and waited there...he got hired...and we did the trade to make sure he could get to work....my dodge was very nice...a $3500 truck easy.....but it just felt right so i did it...Justin Hodges i know you will probably never see this but thank you for your service to our country and i hope the dodge last you a very long time......anyways here is my new to me mj.......
