I hear ya. I guess I'm just an older car junkie. I've now started a Willys cj2a collection that I'm working on and I suppose I agree that I'd like to have a new one to drive around day to day. You gotta admit, there is nothing better than cruising around in the originals on a sunny day. I'm not into getting all the original parts, thats a pain in the ass. With the internet and repro parts, its easy now.
I can't imagine how guys did it years ago when they had to go to junkyards to find original parts. |

I have looked at them a little on CL up here, and some are pretty reasonable. Mostly in the 80s like you say. It hasn't worked it's way up the priority list to act on it yet though. |

Sounds like a YJ Wrangler would be right up your alley. You’ll instantly recognize one by the square headlights, universally hated by “real” Jeep owners.

If you’re just looking for an open top 4X4 Jeep and don’t necessarily need an old classic like a CJ look at the Wrangler YJ’s. They’re the outcast of the ¼ ton 4X4 Jeeps and are the least desireable so they go fairly cheap. The ‘90’s and up had the EFI 4.0L I-6 which has a solid reputation as a torque and reliable motor, if a bit of a gas guzzler for it’s size. If you’re looking to modify one get an ’88-89 with the 2.5L 4 banger, because there’s nothing in that driveline you want so it won’t hurt to send that stuff to the scrap heap when replacing with heavier duty parts.

proven fact: Japanese writing Stickers, and a NoS sticker (pronounced NAAAHS) make your car go faster.
oh, and an Optimus Prime transformer sticker across your entire back window. and a huge rear spoiler to allow the back wheels to hook-up. a few tricks of the trade offered up for free. Other tips will cost you.
