jimoshel Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 Just got back from the friendly P&P. Had a 87 MJ, must have just come in as it hadn't been picked over yet. 2.5, AX4, 4WD, not a dent, scratch or rust anywhere except dent in original rear bumper and it was fixable. This truck is in better shape than half the ones I got in the yard. What you see is what I got for $86 dollars and one hour , two counting the trip, of my time. Going back Mon for the bed, front clip and windshield. VIN 1JTHS6413HT060365 Image Not Found Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnkyboy Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 It always feels weird when I'm tearing apart a vehicle that's nicer then the one I'm fixing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
500 MJ Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Cargo light Jim? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimoshel Posted January 16, 2011 Author Share Posted January 16, 2011 Didn't notice one but wasn't really looking. Was too happy getting 2 interior dome lights. If there is one I'll grab it. Anybody else need anything let me know. This truck was 99% complete. The only things missing was the radio and the plastic trim under the rear window. It also has 16 inch wheels. Thought they only put 15's on MJ'S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimoshel Posted January 19, 2011 Author Share Posted January 19, 2011 Finished picking the remains clean today. Gas tank with fuel pump and sending unit, Windshield, thanks for the tip Pat, foot brake @$$'y complete with mounting bracket,s, and all cables to the brake drums, sliding window, mirrors, complete front clip etc, etc, I got everything that could be carried out on a wheelbarrow, my tool box and my pockets. As I looked at that poor truck I really got kind of ticked. This was a clean little truck and couldn't have had anything wrong that couldn't have been fixed, making junking it unnecessary. I think one of the reasons it and others like it get junked is because people don't know we exist, CC members and addicts to the MJ. I propose we take action to prevent further depredations such as this in the future. I started by giving the guy behind the counter a CC card with my name and number and the promise of $20 everytime he called me when a MJ came in. I propose we form a vigilante committee dedicated to making idiots rue the day they junk a MJ. We neuter them, boil them in hot transmission grease and hang them, I can see the headlines now. "POLICE FIND REMAINS OF MISSING EX JEEP MJ OWNER HANGING FROM A BRIDGE TRESTLE" The victum's wife claims they were rudely awakened by a crowd of rowdy ruffians wearing greasy coveralls and chanting "JEEP JEEP JEEP" as they drug his sorry @$$ out of the house and into the darkness. Just a thought. Jim :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
