Consider another 3rd gen J?
Tuesday, July 31, 2007 7:17 PM
Not that I need another J, but I've been considering...


I've decided to wait a while on the puchase of a new car (unless my new job is a really good one)..


Both of my current Js (03,04) are not far from being paid off.

Still haven't decided what I want to do with the 04 (go custom or auto-xing)

But I have been debating about a new 3rd car (beater)


While my wagon is pretty decent (the 3.1 could go a while), the rust and rot is catching up to it. It is quite rusty.


I've been thinking about a 96-99 Cav/Fire with the 2.2 with a good body and decent miles. Heck, if the body is really good, I could even consider a new engine......


Or maybe even pick up a salvage title cav in good shape.


I don't want to spend a lot of money (though I could have small payments for a while)


Heck, an auto, a/c and a cd player is pretty much all I need.....


Suggestions? Ideas?

Looking for all the help I can get here, good or bad....

i guess my best advice is do alot of searching, and dont be in any hurry. there are so many j bodys around another one is always for sale somewhere near by. just be picky and the right one will come along.
