Hey Jeep lovers. . .
 
You may drive away with my baby! She has beefed up suspension, a brand new
Bestop softop, a custom rollbar, for more support, and at 93,000 miles, she
has lots of life left.. Brand new 3 core performance radiator. Stock inline
6, 4.2L with extra big swamper tires, cool rims and less than 5000 miles on
them. New bucket seats, new distributor cap, spark plugs, wires and rotor.
Brand new AutoZone battery, rated better than stock specs. Here's the
problems with her, and why she's going so cheap. She doesn't run. It's the
timing, I know this, but I honestly don't have any more money to fix her. I
put so much money into getter her repaired, that I've run out. Unfortunately
whoever gets her is going to get her for a steal, as I've put $2500 into her
and I'm only asking $1400. I will accept offers as well, but do know that
the following will need to be either fixed or replaced before she's a "show
car:"

New or replaced fenders

New Doors (Can't even roll the windows up because the frames are bent

Steering column put back together the right way
(It works, and can be driven (I've done it) but she's loose and needs all
her parts put back together right (Never have a body shop do steering column
work)

Rollbar pulled straight (It's a little bent from various activities) Any
shop should have the tools to do that

Floor mats if it's your "Go to work" car

Radio (Gotta have tunes)

Rear suspension shackles (I was going to have a guy manufacture special ones
that are thicker than stock. It's metal cutting and bending, and most good
welders can do it. It was inexpensive.)

Windshield (Glass and wiper blades. Motor should be fine)

Emergency brake pedal (cord is fine)

And of course you'll have to fix what's wrong with her now. She gets spark,
gas and compression. the timings off I'm sure, but I don't know for sure.
Check my article (It was long enough) titled It Started Fine Yesterday. . .
and you'll probably say the same thing some of you already did: timing.
She's in Federal Way, WA. She's beautiful, and I'd love to keep her. I know
what she'll look like when she's done, and I'm sorry to see her go.

If you know enough to know for sure it is the timing, you should also be
able to fix it without spending much, or any, money. -------- Alert.

So.. it doesn't run.. needs a new front end.. needs a new windshield.. needs
new doors.. needs a new steering column.. needs a new rollbar.. needs work
on the emergency brake.. needs work on the rear shackles.. BUT.. it has a
great set of wheels.. a new radiator.. a new soft top.. new bucket seats..
and new ignition parts that have lead you to believe that the reason it
wouldn't start wasn't down to new distributor cap, spark plugs, wires and
rotor..

Just two questions.. what model and year is it?.. and in order to drive away
with your baby, would the prospective buyer just be able to throw the
constituent parts into the back of a full size pickup, or would it roll onto
a trailer?..
