I'd been looking for an older jeep under $5,000 for about a year now, I was at work when I saw the ad. It was an '87 AMC Wrangler for only $2,999! I knew right away it was going to have mechanical problems but fortunately, my son is a mechanic. :welder: My boss let me out early so I hauled butt home to grab up my daughter and go look at it. Took me an hour to drive there and when I did get there, I didn't see it.. someone was already out driving it! It did come back though, the guy seemed a little disgusted by what he saw under the hood and tried to barter with the owner who wouldn't budge so the guy left. Yay it's mine now! :bootyshake:
Didn't have to do too much.. replaced the spark plugs, filters, valve cover gasket, and fixed a radiator hose. Runs great! Blue booked it at $6,900 so I think I got a pretty good deal. Most importantly, I have regained my love of driving. I used to groan when my daughter needed a ride somewhere, now I'm making excuses to go and tend to not come back for four hours.
