Ophelia's Landing Page
Update 4/19/21:
Ophelia has been completely parted out. The stuff I'm keeping has been moved to Brünhilde, my 2006 LJ. As sad as it was to do, converting Ophelia from a desert crawler to PA-legal Jeep was simply too much work to do in the time available (move date is targeted for July, and the summer heat will be here soon).
Luckily, with "parts Jeeps" in such thin supply here in the valley, I was able to sell everything - and I mean everything, even trim pieces that I was getting ready to throw out as well as the metal transmission mount plate!. Some of the parts - like the frame for example, was literally in pieces and I still got $300 for it! When I moved the parts that I'm keeping from the TJ spreadsheet to my LJ spreadsheet, added in all the sold items, and summed it all up, I ended up making money on this rig... gotta love that
Anyone from the valley that knows Chris down in Chandler (the guy with all the TJ parts on Craigslist, FB Market, etc), this is actually close to what he told me he typically makes from a clean part-out... BTW, he's getting out of the TJ part-out business too (which is sad!) since he can't find good rigs anymore (and he wants his yard back - to which I can relate )
