$30xj has a new home!

[Dylan W.]

Ratlabguy and caverdave picked up the $30xj today.
We took a short test drive through some mild trails here at home. It was good to put a couple new faces with some well known forum names. Good luck and treat her good.....err...treat her like a red headed step child. Yeah, that sounds better. Thanks guys. Dylan

The handoff...Ben Franklin finds a new home, too.

[Mike J]

You must always carry that hole around with you

 

[Yay!Gurrr]

holly shit there's a sad looking group !!!!!

test drive ?? - what for ??? like he's gonna bring it back for a refund ???

 

[Dylan W.]

Yeah. i told him about my ''double..no triple your money back offer''. He declined and took her home.

 

[chromerunner]

well when you destroy her at the race ill buy that grille (just dont destroy the grill)

 

[catfishblues]

Great job, Daves! Hate that I wasn't there to share in the fun. Get a tag on it, we'll go "test it out" some more!

Dang, there I was going to tell you to stand up next time you had your picture taken...

Does this mean Dave (ratlabguy) is officially a (half) jeep guy?

Well, I tell ya what.
Since I'm operating on a $70 budget, I'll trade you that front grill for something useful - like maybe some 2" lift rear shackles?

Glad to have this thing. Now, for the plans... so many options... which way to go...
I guess the first thing to do is get the brakes working. Yes, Dylan, they ARE necessary, even w/ a helmet!

(Oh and BTW, note there's no hole in Pic #1...)

Painfully... I guess so.

Or maybe it will become a test. A chance for a Toy guy to try and destroy a Jeep.

I was thinking, maybe I should still enter my 4Runner in the race too... and keep whichever one is in the best shape (e.g., still mobile) at the end of the day.

 

[Dylan W.]

You will probably want to sale the yoter soon!

 

[ol'Jeeps]

Now the new owner needs to start a raffle on the leftover parts, for after the race! LOL!
