Kinda new toy...

[Mr. Black]

Somewhat new to the site...I use search and just browse the site and never really needed to post.. Anyhow, I bought this XJ about 3 years ago for $300. I've used it as a DD and left it stock since. I've got a TJ that I wheel. Well, wife asked me when I was going to do something with the XJ,.. Thats about all it took... And yes, she's letting me keep the TJ as is and still mod the XJ. (I think she is going to want something soon....)

Here is what it looked like when I first brought it home. Up till two weeks ago, it remained the same, minus the stickers.

And as of today

I've still got work to do, but she's coming along.

She is going to take that XJ away from you and wheel it herself.

Looks great.

 

[Mr. Black]

No, she doesn't like wheelin. I took her once and she complained about the heat and the dirt and the fear of rolling.

More work to do.. My backordered TNT unibody stiffeners finally arrived. I also have to fix the unibody at the steering box seeing how it has several cracks around there.
