Hello,

I just want to say a quick thanks to all you guys for all the wealth of information that has allowed me to use a 1987 Grand Wagoneer as a daily driver. Well not so much anymore with fuel cost, so now the Jeep spends more time in the garage than on the road :( .
I admit i am mostly a lurker as a quickie search will pretty much answer most of my questions. If it were not for this site I probably would not own a FSJ. Any-who; I've owned my jeep for just over 3 yrs and it's bone stock with about 188K miles on it.
I have never posted any glamour shots of my jeep, so below are links to some shots I took this past weekend. I bought the jeep from a guy North of Ft Worth for less than 3K and probably spent too much but didn't know about this site until a few weeks after my purchase. Now i know.
Thanks again,
Jones

It looks nice. Unless you have done a bunch of work to it I don't think 3k was that bad of a price.

Thanks!

You really don't want to know how much $$$$ i sunk into the Jeep getting it to pass emissions the 1st time. OUCH! The jeep has passed without too much fuss the last couple of years so no worries.
I am starting to get allot of thumbs up and nice Jeep from the under 30 crowd lately. Weird! When i first bought the Jeep it was always the older gentlemen that would stop and tell me all about the oil leaks, electrical issues, and so one when they owned these things new. Last week there was a young couple wanting me to sell the jeep to them when i pulled into the "Club" parking lot. Sam's club that is.
Now if i can only get my wife to ride in the Jeep without wearing a
disguise it would be all good.
