Man Eddie you've developed quite the stable of jeeps! On your way towards a jeep of every model. Have you guys ever thought about getting another TJ or LJ? Love the color of the CJ5!

Nice, my neighbor had a CJ that had a frame up build then let it sit under a tarp for 10 years. Offered it to me cheap and I waited too long. I kick myself every time I think about it.

How ironic since I just sent you this one for sale in my area.

Glad you found what you were looking for. If I had the extra cash I'd buy this one.

While we loved our old TJ and would love to have an LJ, people are way too in love with them as they seem to hold their value a bit too well. Also, we've been looking for projects to work on and try hard to find Jeeps that are relatively stock. Most of the TJ's and LJ's we see are already modded more than we'd prefer. Last but not least, if we had one, we'd want to wheel it harder than we would our old Jeeps and without question, our JK's could out perform a TJ or LJ any day of the week.

LOL!! It was you sending me that text that got the bug in me to buy something. Literally, we just passed this CJ5 a day after and had to get it :crazyeyes:
