Well. Hello! First post, hopefully not the last!

Tomorrow I´m looking at this Rubi, and as far as this will be my first Jeep, any thoughts? I spoke with the Owner, sounds ok, had a front damage. That explains the .... ugh ..... :)

So what do you think?

And thank you very much in advance so far!

I'd make sure to check if the axle is straight. Also check the frame extremely well for any signs of damage. It appears in the photo the right side fender doesn't match and also hanging a bit lower. That leads me to believe it was a home repair vs a professional shop.
Also, the angry bird could be covering grill damage.
I'd also give your insurance company a call to see if it could easily be added to your current policy.

First, thx for your fast answer. I will see tomorrow. Something I guess. :)

I´ve been watching the TJ Prices a while now, for a Rubi with a clean titel it would be a nice price....

I'd say the most Interesting build I've wheeled was this guy and his dog who came running Everytime he fired up the rig.

Never seen the show, but "...put the hammer down on all four cylinders!"..? Unless there's an engine swap involved, I thought those old Dodges were all flathead sixes. What do you know about it (the build)? Looks like it'd be an entertaining show to binge watch on the weekend.

I think he said it was built on an eighties Tacoma chassis. Had doubler transfer case set up, all junkyard finds. Drives the thing across the country. He was part of my group on the SFWDA meet and greet ride in KY last fall. Guy could take any line and just walk right up

That'd 'splain it, Lucy. Thanks, Chief!
 
Seems like a great deal for an automatic 2.5 at $8500 especially if you are looking for something that already has aftermarket wheels.

The ad says Manual but I think that just means that book in the glove box is still there.
