Welcome to the board. You have a nice looking truck there. Seems it has taken a pretty good trip too.

Neon Beach · 07-06-2009, 03:27 PM

My 86 Wrangler, in it's glory days, about 1999.

JohnC · 07-06-2009, 06:11 PM

Neon Beach · 07-06-2009, 06:47 PM

It was, it's sad to see what it looks like today.

Neon Beach · 07-06-2009, 07:16 PM

1999 was the rebuild, it's just a shame it's was my only vehicle and that the road salt here in the winter eats thru vehciles so badly. I have some pics of it somewhere, after I had to take it off the road, I will post them shen I find them.

Major rustproofing aka oil sprays will hold it off for awhile. I'm gonna be in the same boat. Grrrrrr.

glock35ipsc · 07-08-2009, 09:17 PM

LOL! That pic was taken when I lived in Livermore.

glock35ipsc · 07-08-2009, 10:13 PM

You did good..... no, great at that price!!

What size are the front tires? I like where they sit in the wheel well opening. Actually, I like the stance all around.

SBTork · 07-08-2009, 10:26 PM

That is a rally good deal on that white truck. I like the painted grille. I usually don't but with the chrome grille inserts and bumper it fits really well.

3r!c84 · 07-08-2009, 11:55 PM
