pingpong Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Well I kinda have a good jeeping story to tell you all. One day 2 weeks ago a guy at work approached me and asked me " you still messing with Jeeps?" Of course I said " Yeah and why?" Well he proceedes to tell me that he has a Comanche that he wants gone. So a few days later I go and look at it. well I brought it home today.. It is an 87 MJ 2wd Short bed. It has factory buckets, and sliding glass window. The motor runs good, but has an exhaust leak. It also has a weak clutch (think slave cylinder is bad) and the brakes are weak. The best part about this is it was absolutely FREE :D [-] -= Plans for it right now...is to get the get it inspected, throw a cheapo paint job on it, and convert it to 4wd :D Here is a pic of it after it was pressure washed and cleaned up a lil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Automan2164 Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 Nice score! I would like it if you could take some more side-shots... I have never seen that decal package before, and it looks cool. Rob L. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingpong Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 Sure will next time I go outside.. it is stupid hot. I got this rig from the original owner, and nothing has been changed from stock.. so it is what it is. I thought the option package was a touch weird on it... bucket seats, sliding rear window, ruber floor mat. Then you have the decal package. Also the fact that the paint is mostly intact is odd as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knever3 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 It looks like the decal package was made to make the Jeep appear fast. Is this the 2.5L? If it is that would be so ironic. Nice free Jeep they don't come by that often in that good of shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aemsee Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 i'm guessing they are dealer installed decals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted June 29, 2010 Author Share Posted June 29, 2010 i'm guessing they are dealer installed decals. I don't know, might be. I know I am going to go by a sticker place and have them remake them before I go and paint the truck... that way I can keep it original looking. I think the graphics look good on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
