Gjeep Posted Sunday at 04:42 PM Share Posted Sunday at 04:42 PM I needed a truck … I considered going the last of the real Ford Ranger route or even a first or second gen Dakota. But my Comanche roots run too deep. I was surprised that after a couple hours of looking with the eye to buy, I found an almost all original 85K ’91 MJ Pioneer SB 2WD AW4 column shift non-AC, Silver Star Metallic with Sand interior truck. Only things added that were not off the assembly line: an XJ wood grain dash overlay & switch pod, cherry wood Jeep logo’d steering wheel, 8-ball shifter knob and newer XJ Ecco wheels. The MJ was repainted 9 years back and although the body paint is still sharp, the fender flares need a repaint. Rear bumper is slightly twisted, but I’ll get that straightened out – and then add a few bells and whistles to make this MJ mine. The camper shell will be tossed before I even pull into the driveway. I’ll post pics as I go, but it won’t be a crazy attention to detail build. It can’t be. I need a truck I can actually use. It’ll be a clean runner. Plus, I still need to finish up my stroker MJ some day. Time to get behind the wheel and drive it 9 hours back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89 MJ Posted Sunday at 05:01 PM Share Posted Sunday at 05:01 PM Looks like a pretty good one! I guess you’re just supposed to have 2 MJs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglescout526 Posted Sunday at 06:04 PM Share Posted Sunday at 06:04 PM Huh. Of the few times I’ve been to Kent, I have never seen a single MJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
