A Nother Jeep In The Family

May 20, 2005 6 Replies

Howdy folks, well my son is a proud owner of a 97 TJ, dyna 44 front and rear, new best soft top with sound bar, 4" lift, 33" tires, tow bar with carrier, winch and a hellatious sound system, 95k miles, garage kept, it is really sweet. The kicker is he does not know he is the proud owner since he is in Iraq.



His wife paid $6400.00 cash, she bought it for him as a coming home present he is due back in June after over a year in that s*it hole. His first vehicle was a jeep an 89 YJ it was badly abused. So we worked on it together as a father and son project. Rebuilt the motor, tranny, frame repair, new breaks, seals and a brand new steel tub. He wanted the body painted British Racing Green, I had to admit after we got done painting it did really look good.



He went into the ARMY sold his Jeep and regretted it every since. I can't wait to see his face.


Go give your daughter-in-law a great big hug for me. Hope he gets home safe.
