I am a regular reader of the posts in this group, and usually get all the info I need just from following the thread. I need an opinion(s) on selling my Jeep. Its a 1982 Cj-7, has a Chevy 350 w/an NV4500/Dana TC....I bought it for about $4900, but since '99 have put about $12k into it. It has 35" BFG AT's, 4 wheel disc brakes, custom drive shafts w/double CV joints,AMC 20/Dana 30 w/Detroit Locker in the rear and new gears in both f&r, full-floating forged axles, Softride Susp, new Bestop seats (f&r), new Mallory Ignition system, New Edelbrock 4bbl carb, Line-X'd the entire interior, new Tuffy console(replaced a couple of yrs ago after a break-in) and Tuffy fenderwell boxes....I know I am forgetting some stuff, but had all the work done through 4-Wheel parts and another reputable local place here in town...and get this, I have yet to take it off-road....it is about 95% complete with the remainder of the work needed being cosmetic. I bought it mainly to go surf fishing, but never have taken it, just too rough of a ride for my little ones, I have put maybe 5000 miles on it since '99 (honestly).....anyway, my question is, in you opinion, what would be a fair price to ask for this Jeep? I don't expect to even get 1/2 of what I put into it, but I really need to move it due to financial issues (putting my wife through nursing school). I know I'll start from scratch as soon as she graduates. I'd appreciate any input from you guys/girls.
Thanks, Mark
