Scooter dude, Meepster, and FreeJeep
Underneath: No rust. Minor leakage from transmission pan. Power steering pump leaking. Engine was rebuilt ~70k miles ago - no leaks from engine as far as I see. Minor leakage at differential cover. Alternator case is oxidized. Shocks look like they need replaced.
Under the hood: mostly clean. Battery cables corroded all to hell. Upper hoses from radiator look good. Plug wires/cap are nearly new. Serpentine belt is glazed.
Body: Rear driver door won’t open from outside. It’s been replaced - red paint visible under the green. Driver door doesn’t fit all that well - upper door hinge is loose and may need to be replaced. Peeling clearcoat on hood and roof. Minor surface rust on roof. All exterior plastics oxidized to hell.
Interior: A/C doesn’t work. Cheetah print seat covers need gone. Dash lights are good. All gauges seem to work. Needs a good cleaning - potting soil bag apparently burst open last spring in the rear.
All in all it’s a good start. I’ll likely drive it daily once the safety and charging issues are taken care of.
Then when my wife and I both graduate and are settled within a few years:
Buy crashed MJ Comanche and send FreeJeep with it to my cousin - he has a custom auto shop - to build a 2WD prerunner crew cab CheroManche

Giving up on the “turbocharged” lyfe, huh? (Noted the Kinja name change. )

Oh no. Meepster will just be primarily for my wife. She’s starting a new job the 16th and I would rather have her in a safe, fuel-efficient, newer car than this beat-up, 252k-mile Cherokee.
She married rich before me and I have owned 17 cars in my life. Only 3 of them were ever worth more than $10k when I acquired them.
and 100 more

Why do you still insist on saying “Free Jeep” when you could have been calling it “Freep” this whole time?
