87 wag(pics added)

wow my first 80 something jeep
its pretty much a builder,but i traded my old,and i do mean old boat for it!
i had the boat for 2.5 yrs and only paid $375 for it.
the jeep runs but i think tcase or tranny might be in bad shape.so i'll prbably try and build this one quickly for a 4wd vehicle.and build the chero for october!"fullsize enchilada"
and yes i know

interior is in bad need of some new stuff which is why i didnt take pics of that! lol had an old stuffed ram head (oudad sheep) in the back
motor runs strong,tranny seems to be fine.the tcase is in bad shape! does have d44 front and rear(a plus).. oil gauge goes to 60 psi on startup.
more to come as i think of it!

most of the windows dont work! dang power junk.gonna swap them for manual windows from another wag i have! rear window is knocked out,but i have a spare.clean out the nasty lookin carpet and bedliner it i guess!

i picked up a 219case from Guadzilla,so maybe i can drive it around till i find something better for it. maybe a d300 flip

also need to swap exhaust mani's,those 8? manis look like crap for performance,or is it just me?

87 Waggy

Nice find. Looks like you've got a solid rig just needs minor fixing up.

dang rollover took alot of my strength with it when i messed up my neck.so today was one of my good days and i took advantage of it

theres a few spots here and there where it is faded a bit but nothing bad!
normally the sun out here will eat this stuff! it doesnt even have hail damage,so musta been garaged or at least a carport!

"la""la""la""la" Sambo you hurt your neck in a rollover?

Hope you get better man. Neck is no joke

Dude, that Wag looks exactly like the '89 I'm about to buy down in Houston

Same color,cept the one I'm getting has maroon interior in great shape. Flintstone mobile floorboard on the driverside though. Needs rear window motor,passenger door parts and some other junk

its a jeep......and better yet

its a FSJeep

What is the chero not "comfy" anymore. So you needed a geezer cruiser? Or you just needed some wood?
