| Other -- My 81 Wagoneer Limited was purchased out of the Little Nickel Want Ads in 1995 for $1,000... Ad said: Mechanics Special, 81 Wagoneer, leather, sunroof... It took about 45 minutes to revive him, and then he was spurting every kind of fluid imaginable in every direction... He actually drove the entire 15 miles to my house where he died and wasnt revived again for another 4 months... Hes a thirsty rascal, thats why he needs a Diesel or a Fuel Injected motor. Hes better in the snow than my XJ. Couldnt help but name him Old Blue... The visibility from a FSJ is incredible...I usually hang out on the Full-Size Jeep list. A handful of us got the thing going back in 1995 and have had it on two different servers. But yall are welcome to join us. Instructions on my web page. We try to avoid talking about XJs and even harder to talk about CJs, mainly cause were jealous of all the cool parts available for them... :) | |
