So about 8 years ago, I was driving a 2000 XJ, my first car and Jeep. I always loved the Jeep "pickups" and started researching them. Found an 88 Pioneer 4.0/4x4/ba10/swb with probably the most rust I've ever seen on a vehicle. I bought thinking I had the skills to fix it. That never happened, and it ended up stripped for parts. I've had several MJ's and XJ's since I including my current 91. I haven't been able to work on it as much as I would like, and it just sits in the garage.
The other day I was looking through the classifieds, and found Wesleypipesyo selling an 88 Pioneer 4.0/AW4/4×4/LWB. We talked back and forth a bit, and I ended up dragging the trailer a couple hours away and we made a deal. Plans are to get it back running and on the road first. I have big plans for it in the future, but getting it back to a solid runner is #1 priority, something I haven't done in the past. I'll add to this a little later, but here's my only picture so far for your viewing pleasure.
