I posted a pic on another forum on 2/9 in their "what did you do to your TJ today" thread. It's still on that same page almost a month later. This forum has had 26 pages since then.

We all know you're right. My hoarding tendencies are going to take over at some point, if they haven't already. And yes, the green 97 is my daughters, although she's beginning to wonder if she's ever going to get to drive it.
The trade target is actually a Rubicon, I just learned. I drove past it last night, looks to be stock height, black, with a hard top & auto. That's the extent of what I know. What does an unmolested rubi get on the open market these days?
there is an 03 rubi on marketplace for $8k. 195k miles & 130 miles away, which could be a factor. Looks ok in the pics, but no frame pics & no interior pics. That's my only data point right now.
Ignore the filthy Jeep....we've had lots of rain lately and I've got a spot on my property that I drive through daily that gets a bit sloppy. But I think I finally settled on a color. I messed up and will have to resize the "4.0 L" and I'm out of this color vinyl, so I'll fix it as soon as I get more. I had it measured out accurately, but then cut the old file instead of the file I had resized 
. I was wanting to go with a shade of green to be a little different, but I tried this first and it looks decent. Not sure if green will look any better, or even as good.

Finally sitting on its own weight again! Lots of little detail work to do. Today going to try and knock out the front shock reservoir mounts and trim my inner fenders to fit.
Picked up some more vinyl today and re-cut the "4.0 L" and got it fixed. Now if we could just get a few dry days so I can give this thing a bath, but it's supposed to rain for about a week.

WTjF? How is it you all have green grass already? this is what I woke up to on Monday.
More with the tank now that its out I know the leak is coming from the filler opening area... I cant pinpoint it but I dont think I want to fix this and ill replace it. Now I also need to find replacement clips for the fuel lines too
I'm assuming it has something to do with your profile picture.....
I cut my thumb while adjusting the Savvy shifter cable a month ago and it is still healing.
