theislandnut Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Picked up my first MJ today. 1986 2WD longbox, 131 000 original km good clean all around condition and rust free. It`s got a turbo diesel and a 5 speed, seams to run and drive really nice.
Pete M Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 welcome to the addiction! . :MJ 1: . got any photos yet?
gogmorgo Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Island nut... Seems to be I remember seeing a dizzle ad not too long ago from somewhere on Vancouver Island...? They're all pretty nutty out there. Before you hit me, I lived there for six years, and some of my mom's family still does :thumbsup:
theislandnut Posted December 8, 2015 Author Posted December 8, 2015 It is the one that was posted, and yes we are a bit of a nutty group us islanders. I will try to get some pictures posted soon. I already put on some black alloy rims with less back spacing And 31 inch MT tires, it completely changed the look. My other jeeps are pissed that they have a new brother.
theislandnut Posted December 8, 2015 Author Posted December 8, 2015 I can not figure out how to post pictures or because I am a newbie it won't allow me.
Pete M Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 there's no minimum post count for posting pictures. what site are you using to host them?
theislandnut Posted December 8, 2015 Author Posted December 8, 2015 I can not find an icon or an attachment to click for pictures on the forum

theislandnut Posted December 9, 2015 Author Posted December 9, 2015 Thanks for the advice on the pictures. I have a better chance of getting this diesel to run again then I do figuring out how to post pictures.
gogmorgo Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 I'm actually heading back out to Port Alberni for my grandparents' 50th anniversary in a little over a week. Posting pictures can be frustrating. The gist is you don't really upload to this site, you have to upload to a third party and then link them here. I generally recommend imgur.com, but lately I've been using Facebook out of convenience.
theislandnut Posted December 9, 2015 Author Posted December 9, 2015 You can even see Buford, one of my other jeeps behind the motor home. He is more of a CJ Truggy then a jeep and has a Cj cowl, hood and tailgate for an @$$.
jeepsouth Posted December 9, 2015 Posted December 9, 2015 Welcome ,and nice looking mj. and i'll be the first to say it, the grill is on upside down.
theislandnut Posted December 9, 2015 Author Posted December 9, 2015 I knew something looked hinky with the grill. That would explain why I'm having trouble getting it to start. The jeeps upside down.
