I picked up an mj today

[NINETNINEXJ]

My buddies neighbor had a comanche sitting in his driveway that I've never seen move that I always thought would be cool to turn into a little project truck. Well, his neighbor is moving out of the country and told me it was for sale.

It's an 88 4.0 with 164,000 miles and a dana44 rear axle. It's 2wd and doesn't have a tranny.

$100 for the truck and $38 for a dolly to get it home and I now have this sitting in my backyard.

Thanks Frank. I was having a hard time finding the appropriate ammount of "you suck" to send his way.

 

[Frank Z]

I'm here to help.

Very nice! Can't go wrong at all with a $100 MJ........ :thumbup:

PM enroute...... You didn't say what transmission it's supposed to have, but I have a 2wd AX15 that needs a home.

Oh sure kiss his bum so you can sell a tranny. On the inside I know you are just as jealous he got a MJ for a Benjamin.

........ Not when I have a rust-free, straight bodied, '91 HO/Auto/4x4 short bed with bucket seats....... that I got for free......... :moon:

You guys both suck. I don't even want to know what kind of "favors" you had to do to get that for free.

 

[NINETNINEXJ]

The pictures make it look a lot cleaner then it really is, and it hasn't run in about 4 years. The PO was going to scrap and that is all they thought it was worth for scrap so thats why I got it so cheap.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Ya got a title with it too?

What's the interior like?

If you ever wanna swap in a set of bucket seats, I've got a pair of MJ buckets - but they're blue vinyl........ uke: Or if you remove the seat brackets under the bench seat, you can bolt those up to the bottom of a set of XJ seat bases. Ya just gotta drill out the spot welds and rivets holding them on. There's a couple of write ups on this over on ComancheClub.com

 

[NINETNINEXJ]

They couldn't find the title when I was picking it up today, but I should have it by monday. The interior is pretty dirty to say the least. It already has bucket seats in it, but I might swap them for some zj seats. Tomorrow I'm going to pull the old seats out and clean it up as best I can and pull the carpet up to check for rust.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Buckets too huh? Very cool!

Sure hope they find that title for ya......

Hope the floor boards aren't too rusty! :thumbup:

 

[NINETNINEXJ]

Yeah I think I got a deal for 100 bucks. If they don't find the title my mom knows how to get a new one made, afterall we had to do it with my xj. A rusty floor is the only thing I'm worried about on this thing, the back window was open about 2 inches when I picked it up so hopefully to much weather didn't get in.

 

[YELLAHEEP]

Yeah, if you can get the previous titled owner to go get a replacement title, it's easy...... but getting a title for a car that doesn't have one is no fun at all...... and kinda expensive......

 

[Hypoid]

Good score!!!

If there is a registration from four years ago, the PO can use that to get a copy title. It's that simple!!!

 

[fireLt.]

All messing with ya aside, great deal on a decent truck.

 

[DJManche]

I agree , if those buckets are factory you might want to reupholster them .
Those are rare and easy / cheap to redo .
