The back bench seat is still in good condition (we havn't used it, it's been sitting in the garage). The front seats each have a tear along the seam of the seat and thats about it. There is no carpeting and no rust. The dash is fine too, no cracks, everything works. Oh yeah, the check engine light has been on for about 3 years. :confused:

To clarify:
We have the carpet if you want to put it back in, but carpet isn't cool... The passenger seat is good, the drive seat has one crack in a seam, the check engine light isn't on, it's the brake light.

Body damage:
1) new dent on front left fender - I might flat-fender it to make it look better.
2) small dent on the right fender from bouncing into a tree. This doesn't look too bad
3) bent near antenna and door hinges from the first two pictures in this thread
4) small dent on the top of passenger side rear quarter panel (not too bad)
5) small dents on bottom of rear quarter panels on both sides (not bad at all)

scott that never works

lets say it has less dents than mine does

SOLD
to some guy who saw it on the side of the road when I parked it across the street.

Sorry guys...

it is a sad day... i didnt think it would really leave the club

Congrats, now get to work! October Trailfest is coming up fast. :)

I had hell getting the doors to fit back on and close... Then I smelt gas and saw gas dripping from behind me after bring it back from the side of the road. Then I was painting the axle and noticed the spring perch was falling off.

Both fuel lines were dry rotted - had to drop the tank to fix those - that sucks.

Had to get out the jack and some pipe to straighten out the body so the doors would go on.

Had to re-weld one spring perch because I noticed that one side had completly colapsed - the other side of the perch's weld never penetrated... After I unbolted the U-bolts the perch fell off :eek: I didn't feel right without fixing that before I sold it.

I am glad that I sold it to someone that I don't know - that thing was destined to have a bunch of problems real soon. I am just a little scared that the guy I sold it too has a girlfriend that lives in my neighborhood and I might have to help him broke down on the side of the road :rolleyes:

Lynda's sad - I am happy, one less truck to maintain for a while :gigem:

time to update the sig...

you just need to get that wife of yours to get in the garage more often and work on her stuff. :flipoff2:

same here. my dad wanted it for the same reason.

kind of capable for a farm jeep huh? Why not an old cheap jeep and weld the rear and throw some cheapy tires on. Unless you have like a rock farm which would be fun :gigem:

you ready for this weekend??????????

Hey don't worry about me...I'll be in the garage just as soon as its time to paint the roll cage PINK!

Giving George away felt like giving away the family pet to someone with a bigger yard. "I promise George, you'll be much happier on this deer lease. Lots of animals to scare away, and plenty of stuff to play on..." sniff sniff :(

And about this weekend..I'm not sure if I'm ready to put on a bikini this season. There is this thing that happens to you when you get married...Nikki and I like to call it a "Marriage Pooch" :rolleyes:
