coheed Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 I am really wanting an 86 Comanche. Specifically an 86. As close to Mid-West North Carolina as possible, but willing to do a small road trip. Prefer a 2.8 with an auto, but open to any drivetrain configuration. Also prefer as close to stock as possible. My budgets $2500-3000, of course anything cheaper would be nice as it would leave me some for repairs and the like.

rylee144 Posted September 11, 2019 Posted September 11, 2019 Another a little further. Why an 86? Just curious.

No, my ultimate goal is to build the "best" version of my grandfather's old truck. Long bed, 4wd, with the good trans and transfer case I already have. I want to run a carbureted motor, and an 86 with a 3.4 and an Edelbrock is the simplest option in that case. That one in Ohio doesn't look awful, but almost 8 hours one way is a haul.
Pete M Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 search the atlanta craigslist. maybe that overpriced gold 86 is still for sale. you'll need to bring a trailer.

There's one a few hours away that I've had my eye on. 86 4x4 2.5, and it has a hidden winch bumper on it, no clue if the winch is present. I have a guy supposedly coming to look at the bike Saturday, so here's hoping.
Pete M Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 that's definitely not the one I was thinking of. that one sounds much better than a blown engine, 2wd, and shoddy body work..
BeaterComanche86 Posted September 24, 2019 Posted September 24, 2019 Here’s one in Baltimore https://baltimore.craigslist.org/cto/d/1986-jeep-comanche/6985156599.html
coheed Posted October 1, 2019 Author Posted October 1, 2019 Bike got sold so I've got a larger budget. That one in Baltimore is a good price, but I'm wanting as close to stock as I can get. I've talked to a few guys, the one with the hidden winch bumper seems reluctant to send interior or engine bay pictures which is odd. I'm not really wanting to do a 12 hour road trip if I came at least get a shot of the interior and engine. Most other guys have just ignored my messages, so I guess they sold their trucks or don't want to sell em.
