IF you won it, what would you do with it?

I would keep it and take it to as many NAXJA events possible. Then possibly convert it for my friend that has been in a wheel chair since he was 9 years old (23 now). Hes always wanted to join in an the wheeling fun, and he would need this rig more than I do.

Off-topic -- I wheeled with a dude that was a parapalegic in Moab a few years ago. Sweet lifted TJ with hand throttles and brakes on the steering wheel. He climbed some ledges that were stopping everyone else, real cool (I was in a rental TJ, so that trip was all around fun!!! i.e. drive it like a rental...)
 
Not that I'm allowed to win it..

but I'd swap the axles with my '87 beater and keep it as a nicer expedition wheeling rig. The 87's getting too rough for touring trips these days.
 
A) fly out to Utah and have a nice road trip home

B) have a nice wheeler so i dont have to worry about building /bashing up my DD. Drive it for what it was built to do.
 
The last Giveaway XJ I couldn't enter, but my oldest granddaughter - then 10 years old - had fifty(?) tickets in the pool. We knew it was just a matter of time until she took an interest in driving, and that occurred about two years ago.

Well this time around, I CAN enter, and the intent is the same. Amber is much closer to legal driving age now.

I bet 5.38:1 and 35" will get exquisite fuel mileage!

Wish her luck ;)
 
Easy. Keep it.
Make it my new DD, sell my truck and get a bigger tow rig so I can haul both XJs. One for myself and one for my lady when we go wheelin'. :)

I'm gonna have to change the above.
Keeping it would definitely still happen, but it looks like now I'd also be keeping my truck as the woman needs a new vehicle. So she'd get my truck and I'd still make the Giveaway XJ my new DD.
