my friend has that same kind of jeep with about the same miles. that thing lives up to its name. shes hit everything you can think of with it dents everywhere lights hanging on it the motor knockes because she ran it with no oil for a long time. but it still starts right up and drives it around. she cant kill it. good luck with it there built like a tank.

Sounds like it would be a good contender to the Chevy Celebrity. You can NOT break those things!

Nothing like a good beater truck to mess around with. I bet you will have a ton of fun with that thing. I would love to have something like that to just f-around in all the time. Enjoy!

Actually its a really clean jeep and i need to make it last for a pretty long time. Its my only car so I'm gonna be taking really good care of it. Im thinking of painting the wheels black.....any thoughts?

Looks to low......i suggest a lift.....maybe 6" or so? and some nice tires to go with it.

I agree with that! But im too poor to afford the lift and tires, let alone the drop in MPG that comes along with it

Actually that is pretty clean. I didn't get to see the pics on my work computer, so I just assumed. Looks like I mad an ass out of you and me.

TRUE STORY!

sadly the rest of the truck with fall apart before that motor ever does. Alot of electrical problems with Jeeps, that's why Wranglers are the best Jeeps to have because they fore go all that power accesories (read: luxuries) B.S. and it's just that beautiful motor and the truck. they last forever.
But this looks amazingly clean so hopefully you'll have nothing but good luck and fun with it.

I know a couple jeeps with over 160K on them with better oil pressure than my cav at 22K! Those things last!

I had a 1990 jeep cherokee with 200K miles on it. That thing will last forever. You are going to have a lot of fun! Great pick up!

I've heard a lot of good things about the inline six, and that was definately a factor in deciding to buy it.

I was driving it yesterday and noticed really small little balls of rubber on my hand that was steering. The leather wrapping on the wheel is wearing down and kinda deteriorating, is that what you are talking about?

that is true. my mom had an 87 celebrity wagon that she bought brand new when i was 3 and she had it untill 99 i think. it had 340,000 miles on it and still ran/drove.

Thats a nice jeep you got there. good luck with it.


My other car is an interceptor.
