This is a great built-up project jeep for any
entry level hobby jeeper. This is not a freeway runner but rather an
around town daily driver or an easter Moab/Rubicon trail master/rock crawler due
to gearing.
The seller is an "OEF" retired, veteran, and a jeep mechanic
that grew up in Detroit ‘wrenching.’ He
is moving out of the country to run his nonprofit that feeds elementary school
kids in SE Asia. He can’t take his 12th
jeep project with him. This project has invested over $18,000. Do your own
actual research online to confirm build investment; with all the most desirable
options any club jeeper would want. He can assist with suggestions for shipping for the inexperienced (it is really easy to ship door to door).
A great vehicle for that professional that has to get to the hospital/clinic on a snow day. NO TRADES. NO DEALERS! NO EXCEPTIONS. DONT BOTHER ASKING. I DONT CARE IF CLAIM TO BE THE NEW POPE! talks,and BS...walks. no financial games to close. CASH in person or Certified bank funds that must clear first before the bank releases the title to the buyer. local pickup in Idaho possible with payment directly transferred to my bank. .local inspections are welcome.
Thank you for looking. BE careful buying a jeep.. there are a lot of junk jeeps on "B" sales lots that come from the car auctions-so do your home work or get a local jeep club member to help you pick a cherry.. Jeep guys are very friendly and will bragg until your ears ring about their jeep experience. You get what you pay for in a jeep. BTW: low ball, broke, dreaming tire kickers pls dont waste my time. I am getting my home ready to move.
