Thanks for the input, appreciate the attention, that was a cool response.
I think I have seen most of these
1- 06,120Kmi, 12500$, Eight owners, auction block 6 times no hard top, silly lift maybe for 9K 10K, no way 12500. its been my experience even though dealers boast of there service its hard if not impossible to get them to give you accurate pictures from underneath, its always,,, when do you want to test drive and we have these extra buying fees. Not that theirs not good dealers out there, I just haven't come across any that hasn't elevated the LJ 2-3k of market price. just my opinion and would liked to be proven wrong. Its hard to see past the spry coatings on frame they spray on the frames to make them look, what like fancy makeup and push up braw, a little discouraging once you get them home. sorry it was funnier in my mind.
2- 04, 100Kmi, 10995K$ Rebuilt, soft top, pass for that kind of money.
3- 04,148Kmi, 9500K Black :-(, worn out soft top, least the windows, Anything but black for me, a bit higher millage than Im really looking for.
4- 04, 122Kmi, 17500K mostly rebuilt, remanufactured, and nice mods. 4:88's for 33;s might be spinning the 4.0 a bit fast I dunno. I dig the hard top, Spoke to the owner Mike when he posted, nice fellow, straight shooter, rusty spot on the frame at the back, he mentioned it was not an issue given the location of corrosion, I shied away.
Its been my experience once rust in found in one spot it's like its cancer that never goes into remission. I may circle around and ask more questions but I get he needs what he needs as far as price.
At the time I was talking with Mike the owner of this LJ I believe, I was looking, working on a LJR W factory hard top out of Colorado, the owner drug me along form October to first week in January 2020, he is a pilot working out of Hawaii, they were moving so he wasn't home much and I didn't want to pressure him, a note every week or so making sure we were on track, fist Thanksgiving, then Christmas, we planned on flying out and driving back . Anyway I thought we had a square deal done for 15K. Dude sold it to his neighbor Jan 3, or so he said., meah long distance relationships are hard.
Jim still looking
I just want the one.
