Here's a few pics of how my XJ looked when I bought it for $500.00.
It was not running but came with the newly installed Rusty's 4.5 lift and 33's on some have chrome rusty rims..Its a 1990 Laredo with all the options.The paint was faded but there is no rust, so I rattle canned it tan. I plan to rebuild the engine(bunch of oil leaks and rod rattle).I want to build a light bar/roof rack/tire carrier. I might go exo cage, def want some brush bars on the front.I will add a winch down the road. A snorkle is needed along with a few other little improvements/mods

Wow, $78.00 for a complete dana 44 is a steal. Good find!

Let' see some interior pics after the seats are installed.

Awesome deal on the D44... Am keeping an eye out on my local JY to see if I can find a D44 that maybe I could pick up for a steal like that and build up and do a disc conversion on it to install later...
