  1. At least he's wearing a helmet.........Safety first.
  2. Yep, pass. Unless he's already priced it accordingly with the damage he's going to be sitting on that for a while.
  3. Just an amazing build! On the rear window do you have a slight gap between the body and window frame? I have one of the CR ones and theres a slight maybe 1/4" gap. Thought it might have been a poor install but wasnt too sure. Works fine and worst case I'll lay down a bead of silicone to seal it up.
  4. Not too sure. You can't see from my crappy pic but there is a CC sticker on the back right, so was thinking it was someone on here. I think I know which one you where talking about wasnt it a long bed that was bobbed? Or am I making that up.
  5. I've thought about it. But then I start looking at cost and figure might as well build a buggy if I wanted a trail rig.
  6. I go back and forth with what to do. Some days just leaving it as is and keep it on the road. Others lift it with 35s and swapping in a LS or TDI. I think all I've really figured out is I don't want to chop it up. It's just a little too clean and they are so rare to start hacking away. Not sure who rig this is but I dig it.

    Yanked?

    And I appreciate it. If people want to chat about politics and such cool but I came here for comanches and other shenanigans.
  8. Not new, check out Naxja. Few people over there have run it. Great little set up
  9. Nice! I was off tufts and Broadway. Was nice being able to walk to Ace and the auto part store. Good luck on the rest.
  10. Id scratch Castle rock. Douglass county taxes suck, water is more and it has blown up and will keep growing. That development between Santa fe and roxburgh is going to bring 30k more people there. Englewood or Littleton are great. Englewood has come a long way and it's nice being pretty central to everything. When I used to live there I had to drive over by Centennial airport. Took belleview all the way and was about 20ish minutes for a commute. I still miss that house. Loved that area.
  11. Fork that! Just pick up used AW4 beat the crap out of it for another 200k and repeat again. Here's a good link going over what AW4 works https://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1053970
  12. So what you are describing a restomod not a restoration. Most restomods MJ that are done well can range from 8-12k. Depending on what is done, how well and if the truck is clean and painted. What you are describing I wouldn't except 15k but maybe, just depends. If you are wanting to do a true restoration keep it stock, clean it up and don't swap out a lot of the original parts. Obviously lots of factors go into what constitutes a true restoration and price.
  13. This wins the internet for the day.......
  14. Found this bad boy for sale. Look at that flex.......
  15. Well been a bit but no news is good news. Dropped a valve seat and scored the top of the piston. Builder made sure to do everything to prevent it but guess just a total fluke. Hes replacing the heads as well because it was the same cylinder nymber as before it was rebuilt, so he thinks the head is bad. So engine has to be pulled and rebuilt. Really bummed but I guess better now than later. Would have preferred never but...... Having the rear axle seals replaced and lunchbox thrown in while its there too. I'd do it but just don't have the time right now. So hopefully in the next month I'll get it back. Driving my dads back up WJ with the 4.0. Gawd thing is slow in comparison.

    Photo Hosting

    I use imgur, hasnt given me any issues since photobucket broke the internet.
  17. In my huge town of 7k people there are 3 I known of. One is a HO that is clean, other is a rig beat to crap and last one is decent 4 banger. When I was in Denver I saw one every now and then but not often.
  18. When the wife wanted to sell her KJ she wanted to get a newer jeep and shot that down. Told her I already have to work on my junk enough don't need more. Our sell on the GX was kind of a 4runner that was nicer with a V8 and cheaper. Heated leather, 3rd row and V8 standard, comparable 4RS were 3k+ more and obviously no V8.
  19. Nice rig. We picked my wife up a GX460 a bit ago and love it. Only thing I hate is parts are expesive and oil changes suck. Have to drop the skid. But it drives amazingly smooth. I'd eventually like to get a lx570 or another GX. After all the headache with my WJ I'm done with Jeeps as a daily. Love Jeeps as rigs but that's slowly becoming it.
  20. Ok and I knew the 92 had the fewest. Just crazy. I guess in comparison my WJ only had 6k made of its trim, the Columbia, and fewer of the 4.7HO.
  21. Is 200k really the total production number? So less than 30k a year. Just seems off but I guess for how few I see.
  22. Haha these are gold!
  23. Yeah that's a rip, we had it but it was $700. I'm trying to remember if it was shopable service or part of the lender fees.
  24. Ok well just don't dip over into Douglass county. Water and taxes are expensive comparatively to jeffco and Arapahoe county. I dig the Columbia area. We where going to move there before we moved up the hill.
