For Sale

I thought to post in the Other Items for Sale but didn't want to disrupt that section and steal all of the views from the other items for sale so....

FOR SALE: One wife. 1985 model. Well used. Many owners but papers (divorce/alimony) available. Big rear custom made bumper. Aftermarket front bumper installed 2 yrs ago. Needs touch-up paint job to cover up scratches, cracks, wrinkles, and dents. When started up, makes an annoying nagging noise. Solution is to keep fluid levels up and tank filled. Vodka and Tequila work best. Gets terrible gas mileage and always putting money into it for repairs and to stop nagging noise. Care costs more than what I get out of it so will give to bad home for free.

i wouldn't trade my 1990 for the world

doesn't make nagging noises, engine runs real good, nice bumpers and real nice custom paint (tattoos)

and is very compatible with Jeeps, the WJ that came with her as an extra option is something I look forward to messin with too

A 1985 that's that bad already?

JeepinJarhead03 · **Posted:** Tue Mar 30, 2010 8:11 am

When I first read it, it seemed like 1985 referred to date of marriage but then decided i thought it was talking about birth year

however you look at it, i'm just happy my 90 model appreciates her 78 model

lol

I have an 80 model that is still running just fine. In fact, she seems to be running better with age and all-original parts. . . .

No you haven't. Maybe using the same "idea" but not the way I wrote mine.

Sounds more like a '75 model. Back then bumpers were huge and when they hit 35, they either accomplish great things or make life a total hell.
Has this '85 model been run on Meth?
I heard it greatly accelerates the aging process.

I will stick with my '53 model I first test drove 36 years ago, and made my own 34 years ago. Bumpers are big and she is a wide tracker, but the motor still purrs and runs strong.

I'm beginning to think

The less that I drink

The more

I don't want her around

stumpjumper_09 · **Posted:** Wed Mar 31, 2010 10:57 pm

Traded in my 84 for a worry free 85

Tokyojoe · **Posted:** Thu Apr 01, 2010 8:44 am

Then a lot of people on here plagiarize with thier "own creations of KJ parts.

Please find the original creator of the concept I used so I may give him/her credit. Odds are, it started back long before JC came to be, back in the BC era.

Did anyone besides me just hear chickens clucking?

Take it easy, tokyo - just giving you a hard time. . . . :mrgreen:

InCommando · **Posted:** Thu Apr 01, 2010 11:51 am

I got rid of a historic '66 for an '82. Both bumpers on the '66 must have rust issues as they are no longer in their original places. The '82 is equipped with airbags, so safety is improved.

Tokyojoe · **Posted:** Fri Apr 02, 2010 8:49 pm

Just hoping those airbags don't deploy when bumping.....ummm...I'll stop there. :ROTFL:
