64 Cheyenne Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 952 reasons to buy it. IMHO I'd try and buy it because of how rare 92s are,but I'd keep and drive the 87 more cause it wouldn't hurt as bad as if something happened to the 92.

mvusse Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Don't know where the OP is from, but the 1992 has 5 years better chance of still having a floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87 comanche Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 You guys are making this easier and easier. I'll check it out tomorrow I need to set up photo bucket so I can post some pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Warrior Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 5 years better chance at a floor? Mine must have gotten beat with the watering stick. A small child could fall through my 92. It has lived its life in the rust belt though. Don't hold your breath on that D44 either...my D35 has held up to 200K miles! (soon to be replaced by a '91 D44) Do what you want. I do not foresee the '92 MJ becoming a collectors edition vehicle or anything like that. It just a harder to find year. Although, if you do get it we will at least know where a handful of 92's ended up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 MJs were built in 85 as an 86 model. (just like you'll soon be able to buy some 2010 cars) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete M Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Which is why it's possible that there were more 92s sold than 952. Those production numbers, if accurate, could be the number of MJs made in those calender years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87 comanche Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 What a shame :fs1: So I checked out the 92 the add in the paper said awsome condition get there picture was fom the drivers side looked good matching topper had the dana 35 still maroon he was asking 2900. Walked around to the drivers side and another car had backed into it. Right in front of the rear wheel and right behind the door. I go to leave and the guy tells me the truck was hit in walmart parking lot and a body shop told him 700 to 800 fix it. He said it wasnt worth to fix but still wanted 2600. :nuts: awsome shape? i'll keep my 87. Anbody else wants to check it out go to LeitingsAutoSales.com. Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 When the back corner of my truck was hit, I was quoted $2200 to fix it. Nobody makes bed sides for Comanches any more. The body shop would have to make a new side from a sheet of metal. If the dent can be pulled out without replacing sheet metal, and not needing paint, $800 might be right. Without seeing the damage myself, I might offer $1000, tops. $2900 for any Comanche is too much unless it looks like a show truck (89eliminator, $500MJ, MJBT4, Hornbrod, ...) Wait 6 months, and see if he takes $800 for it. I imagine it'll still be sitting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnj92131 Posted September 11, 2009 Share Posted September 11, 2009 Sorry, I really can not see the 92 becoming much more of a collectors item than an 88 or a 91. Yes, if you are interested in a Comanche to collect the 92 would be newer and maybe better. But most of the folks here seem to want off the road trucks to use and "abuse" on the trails. Take if from me, after an accident, the insurance companies claim they are all just "old trucks" not worth much. Take a real, hard look at the 92 and see everything it needs. Do the same for the truck you have and KNOW. Will bet your current truck is a better deal. Now granted, I have a 91, rust free original Southern California truck with a long bed and a Big Ton package, trailer hitch and a bunch of other goodies, like a full bench seat and column shifter. For a few dollars, I can have bucket seats and a full time 4X4 drive train. So that may color my judgement. BTW, while I was looking for a Comanche, I passed on a 92 long bed 4X4 because it was red.

87 comanche Posted September 12, 2009 Author Share Posted September 12, 2009 Yeah you know a dealer " I have someone really interested in it let me know, small 4 wheel drives are hard to find " he says .yeah right . Their was no way that dent could be pulled. I'll keep mine at least I know what I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
