My granddaughter wants me to go with her Saturday to look at a Jeep. (Probably wants me to buy it for her also). Anyway its a 1991 Wrangler with a 2.5L engine?????? and I believe a 5-speed. (Must be a four banger). Its has the hard top and a bikini top, body/interior is supposed to be in very good shape. What do I need to know or look for. My granddaughter wants it to dive on the beach, no serious off-roading, or mud-bogging, and they throw you in jail if you even think about walking on the dunes, and probably execute you on the spot if you drive on them. (After all these hurricanes we have had in NC the last few years they pretty sensitive about the dunes).
Basically what I am asking is will the 2.5L engine go on the beach with reasonable tires that are aired down? Or is the 2.5L engine just a Suburban Assault Vehicle, good only in the Mall Parking Lot? BTW this won't be her basic means of transportation, it will stay here for her to use when she visits.
