still looks good... what are you going to do about the engine

Couple options..

Once i get this XJ carcass gone i'm going to pull the head, inspect for gouging and out of round. If it's good i'll order an overhaul kit. If not i have a line on a rebuilt motor in NJ. Kinda looking fwd to repairing this, have never done pistons/rings.

mofo hooked me up with shipping tools to me, cylinder mic, hone, ring groove cleaner, ring expander and compressor in the event it's salvagable.
 
It is Mark. I wasnt looking, found this advertised, threw an offer out and got it.

The Mrs loves the color and is a fan of WJ's so i figured what the hell..
 
Its so nice and pretty.

Ya my driveway looks like a junkyard right now. I can only bet my parents would love to go back to the day I bought a Jeep and slap me for doing so.

That blue tarp is the cocoon it is currently sitting in because of rain.
