Important

Totalled, bought back, need to get it home now and tear stuff apart.
Can't complain really. I'm sure you'll be able to fix it for a lot less than what they gave you in the buy out.
 
Just sent an email here at work saying I want to apply for a position that will be opening up. It will mean I will be working weekends and will have to do things on my days off (Thursdays & Fridays). It is the next step in my career in television.

And I forgot to mention, the job duties is something I could do now if I had to in an emergency.

Janitor?


:D

Yup, that's the plan. I have a friend that works in auto parts already spec'd me out a list of stuff. It's not going to be that expensive, just going to be driving a vehicle with a salvage title which is not a big deal since I never intended to sell it ever.

Though I think my adjuster was a little bit of a goof, he said to me: Your serpentine belt came off, so there's something going on there.
 
Everything is lining up...it will be done. The goal is to transfer as many features and as much functionality as possible over to the MJ. There will hopefully be a build thread starting in the near future. Should be a very cool resto-mod DD MJ.

Who is the mystery man?

I was going to guess makeup artist.

:D


Nope, only did that in college and I was forced to do that as part of the crew rotation.

You shouldn't have a salvage title, they only give s titles after the vehicle has been bought at a salvage auction.

I've done this many times and always kept clear title.

My bro-in-law. Sexy Flexy is correct - it should be well done.

First step is tearing down the WJ. We also need to find a donor 97+ XJ for dash, body panels, and maybe D30, so let me know if you see anything cheap with a rear hit/blown motor/etc.

On my way home today I passed a semi and got up to 85 when I found out what 'death wobble' feels like. I guess 85 is too fast for the jeep. Since that I've noticed a little bit of a vibe when hitting bumps at 50 or higher.I will have to check everything out when I put the budget boost on next week.

I had bad shocks and a worn track bar on the front of one of my old XJ's and lost a tire weight when passing once. Complete pucker effect.
 
PACKERS!



No beer, work in the AM. Following game day is just a sin.



Oh, and that's hopeful Dan. I look forward to getting it fixed. Wishing I had more than one vehicle currently at my disposal though, but that would mean getting back to Green Bay to pick one up.

Didn't he build something else that was pretty cool too? A CJ or something? I remember you telling me about it.

I'll see what I come across.

Indiana too. Insurance totalled the popcan after the rollover but the title is still free and clear of a salvage title...not that it makes it worth anymore...

Death Wobble means you had to stomp on your brakes and come to a complete stop after the incident happened, and when the incident happened you thought you were going to die and felt like the front of the Jeep was going to fall off...anything else is a wobble.
