...and not worth 21.5K either. Wow, some people need to 'do their homework' before listing such vehicles. Good call Dave...too much to say...lol

I would like to know where he has seen one for 90K.

I too was wondering about his price and the $90k jeep. I originally wrote that I'd like to see his internet AND sell jeeps on it, because I'm not seeing those prices on my internet :-)

WOW,What kind of ''Smoke'' has this guy been doing. Maybe 2,000.00 dollars and not much more.If he thinks this is worth that much , then my project will be worth $ 90K...hahahaha. This is what happened to Muscle Cars ,rusted out Mustangs worth big bucks. I hope somebody straightens this person out on the right track on value...What internet has he been on ???? Metal doors and diesel engine ????

I can't tell for sure, but it looks like the rims have been spaced out past the hubs, on the front and rear?????
