NHMJXJ Posted October 25, 2014 Share Posted October 25, 2014 I search all the major sites daily (eBay, Cars.com, Autotrader ...etc.) ... hoping a CC member might spy something in their neighborhood that will fit the bill. Specifically, I'm looking for a clean, unmolested, original, 97-01 4WD XJ 2 door. More specifically ... NO red* vehicles (*any shade). Blue, Green, Silver, Black, White OK. MUSTS: Auto. Clean in and out. Unmolested. All factory options in working order. NO red. "Wants": Auto, Cruise and privacy glass. If it has those options, it has the others I want. Under 150K miles, nearly rust free, CLEAN interior ... no rips, cracks, tears, stains or odors. NO evidence of smoke/fur/feathers/diapers. A little history: An idiot in an F150 destroyed my perfectly good '99 XJ two door. It was my DD and while his insurance paid in full, I was pressed for time to replace it. I had a rental for a month and looked at nearly 50 XJ's from RI to ME. I found a nice 4 door in my own back yard which is my current DD, but I have continued my search. Recently posted in the Pub hoping someone local to a vehicle I found online could take a look for me. Kind of got me thinking about this request. More is better and I know the CC community looks when they see a decent jeep vehicle, MJ or not. Keep your eyes pealed! I am prepared to fly and drive, or transport.

NHMJXJ Posted October 26, 2014 Author Share Posted October 26, 2014 Got a good lead on a repairable XJ from Strokermjcomanche Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmoore1031 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Had a blue 97 2 door 4WD stock rust free last year... but it had over 200k on it. Found it for sale on someone's yard, they said it was already spoken for. A few weeks went by and I saw they posted it on Craigslist. Bought it that day for $800. There is one out there for you and I'll look around here in AR for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xjrev10 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 My new 98 2-door. After all the XJs I've had, never owned a 2-door. They are on the rare side. This ones got a 5-speed. Sorry to clutter your post pimping these pictures! I like 2-doors! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancome433 Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Don't know how far youre willing to go, but Ive found a few good ones around here, ill have to look for the ads again, but most of everything around here is rust free, I was lucky to get mine for what I got it for, although its taken me a lot to get to where its in decent shape after PO destroyed it.

NHMJXJ Posted November 10, 2014 Author Share Posted November 10, 2014 PM sent. As these 2 door XJ's are hard to find, I'm open to options. Pretty firm on NO red and auto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NHMJXJ Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 Guess you can't "Bump" and "hide". Still in search of. Left coast, southwest seems to have lots of them. This is essentially my old XJ with cruise. >>> http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?doorCodes=2&zip=03109&endYear=2000&modelCode1=CHER&showcaseOwnerId=70747&startYear=2000&makeCode1=JEEP&doorCode=2&searchRadius=0&extColorsSimple=WHITE&mmt=%5BJEEP%5BCHER%5B%5D%5D%5B%5D%5D&listingId=386998244&Log=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NHMJXJ Posted March 6, 2015 Author Share Posted March 6, 2015 I asked what his price was ... never got a response. Not unlike MJ's, 2 door XJ's are becoming rare (in good condition and unmolested). I've seen hundreds that have been lifted, trailed and ruined. I know it's the right platform to do the former, but it's a shame to see'em go.

1987Comanche Posted March 8, 2015 Share Posted March 8, 2015 This one looks like it has good bones but you'd have to convert it to 4WD. Cheap enough, running, rust free, and mileage isn't too bad. http://greenville.craigslist.org/cto/4914777492.html I wanted a 4WD 91-92 4.0 AX-15 MJ. I couldn't find the exact truck I wanted so I built mine from a 2WD '92. You may end up in the same boat... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
