When you're used to giving all your friends a seat and then you need one...You can ride beer bitch with your junk on jack stands, invalid excuse.
I recently bought a "built" XJ with the intention of fixing and selling. 01, 35s, ARBs, skids, lights, very similar to @77GreenMachine. I bought it for $1200 with a damaged ARB.
Bought another set of stock 3.55 axles and swapped them in, bought 2 new tires to match the 2 good ones, ripped out the sound system and returned the interior to stock. Also needed a floor pan.
Had $2100 in it, sold for $6500 to a high school kid (dad) before it was listed.
Repaired the ARB'd axles and sold for $2100
Sold the skids for $300
Took the profit and paid for all of my upgrades at Mars Fab on the Ranger.
If Phillip plays his cards right, he can make some serious coin. Apply that coin tio his buggy dreams and he's money ahead.
Stop giving away trade secrets.A good friend of mine had a TJ on 35s back in the day and wanted tons. He bought another TJ with Dynatrac ProRock 60s for $12k. Swapped the PR60s into his TJ, swapped his stock axles into the other TJ.
Sold the donor TJ the following week for $12k.
Right place, right time, cash in hand and you can make some coin doing what you're considering.
It's no secret that the way to make money flipping vehicles is to buy low and sell high, some are just better at it than others.Stop giving away trade secrets.
"Wanna sell your Jeep? It ain't worth much as is. I'll probably just tinker on it in my spare time..."Stop giving away trade secrets.
List Atlas for $2k. They cost $2800ish now after shifters, tax, shipping, etc and they're 2 months out. Sell for no less than $1600.
Double or nothing lol@77GreenMachine I got $1200 cash for it if its 23 spline.
I'll buy it for $1600 BTW, I'll even come help pull it for that price lol.
