Time to keep looking I think...
OK, I was supposed to get a call back by 6:30, over three hours ago on
the CJ-7. I just now got the call. The guy said the owner accepted
my offer of $3200 but wanted to keep the chrome front grille. I told
him I was disgusted that he called 3 hours late and that my final
offer of $3200 stood and I wanted the chrome grille, too, and also
wanted to see the hard-top first that they claimed came with the Jeep
which was NOT there earlier when I looked at it. I said something
about not liking to be "jerked around" and apparently he took offense
at that. Too bad. I was ready to buy the Jeep. They were not as
serious as I was. I'm still willing to buy it, but only on my own
terms. I told him to tel lhis friend (the owner) "$3200, WITH the
grille AND I want to see/inspect the hard-top now before handing any
cash over." He was PISSED OFF to say the least. I don't expect to
hear back from him. Oh well, there are plenty of Jeeps like that one
for sale. This will just give me a chance to be more objective about
the whole thing and maybe I'll get lucky and wind up with a better
deal. :-/

Update: (please excuse the language but I'm pissed off right now)
The owner of the Jeep called me on my cell phone. I hadn't even
talked to him previously. Only his friend who was 10 minutes late to
meet me and then over 3 hours late in calling me about the Jeep.
Apparently he got my # from his buddy who I met earlier today. The
one who called over 3 hours late. He tried to whine some. He
started in about how much he paid for the grille and blah blah it
wasn't his fault his friend called me so late... *tap tap* "Is this
thing on?" *tap tap* NOT MY PROBLEM, BUDDY. To make a long story
very short I said.... AGAIN. "I don't like to be jerked around.
$3200 is my final offer WITH the hard top AFTER I inspect it AND that
offer includes the fancy chrome grille. And by the way I was ready to
pay $3500 for it, but I'm not even going to pay that much for it now.
YOU call me back when you're ready to sell it for $3200. Jeep,
hard-top (after I check it out), and fancy chrome grille. BIATCH."
Wow. Now I see why these guys are friends. For some reason this dude
got pissed off, too. But... For some reason he insisted on leaving
his phone number and his cell phone number with me before hanging up.
Like he thought I'd call him back begging to buy his Jeep. Hmm... I
wonder how mad he's gonna get when he calls me back after I don't call
him and he tells me he'll sell it for $3200 the way I want it and I
tell him he has to deliver it to me and that I'll only pay him $3000
for it now. I hate it when people try to bend me over. I'm too old
for that crap. If they don't wanna sell me their shitbox then I'll
buy a bigger, smellier shitbox from someone else. (with bigger,
knobbier tires). :-D Damnit, this pisses me off. The search goes
on...

his phone number and his cell phone number with me before hanging up.
Like he thought I'd call him back begging to buy his Jeep. Hmm... I
wonder how mad he's gonna get when he calls me back after I don't call
him and he tells me he'll sell it for $3200 the way I want it and I
tell him he has to deliver it to me and that I'll only pay him $3000
for it now. I hate it when people try to bend me over. I'm too old
for that crap. If they don't wanna sell me their shitbox then I'll
buy a bigger, smellier shitbox from someone else. (with bigger,
knobbier tires). :-D Damnit, this pisses me off. The search goes
on...

Update: (please excuse the language but I'm pissed off right now)
The owner of the Jeep called me on my cell phone. I hadn't even
talked to him previously. Only his friend who was 10 minutes late to
meet me and then over 3 hours late in calling me about the Jeep.
Apparently he got my # from his buddy who I met earlier today. The
one who called over 3 hours late. He tried to whine some. He
started in about how much he paid for the grille and blah blah it
wasn't his fault his friend called me so late... *tap tap* "Is this
thing on?" *tap tap* NOT MY PROBLEM, BUDDY. To make a long story
very short I said.... AGAIN. "I don't like to be jerked around.
$3200 is my final offer WITH the hard top AFTER I inspect it AND that
offer includes the fancy chrome grille. And by the way I was ready to
pay $3500 for it, but I'm not even going to pay that much for it now.
YOU call me back when you're ready to sell it for $3200. Jeep,
hard-top (after I check it out), and fancy chrome grille. BIATCH."
Wow. Now I see why these guys are friends. For some reason this dude
got pissed off, too. But... For some reason he insisted on leaving
his phone number and his cell phone number with me before hanging up.
