Buying Tips

Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .

Runs and drives great and a lot of time and money have been invested. I am only selling because a new baby is on the way. With a new paint job Jeepsters usually average in the range of $15000 – $30,000. I would like $7500 obo for a quick sale. Interesting partial trades are considered. I can help you move the Jeepster if needed and do have access to a car dolly. Driving it home is also an option. Serious inquires only please. Email me your number and I will be happy to call you and set a time to see it.
