Meet "BJ". BJ, aka "Black Jeep", is a dear friend and I'm very sad to see him go. We're moving and need the $ to buy a home. As they say, your gain, my loss. Here are basic specifications:

Disclaimers
: BJ was built in 1981. That’s 40 years ago. I’m 40 also. No matter how well we take care of ourselves (and our Jeeps), we’re not like we were when we were 20. BJ has some rust, makes some noises, and has some scrapes & dings. Albeit small, this is not a showroom vehicle. Original paint with some touch up spraying. A Linex paint job would look siiiiiick -- to each his own. It's a MEGA head-turner nonetheless! I get compliments almost every time I take it out. Being
sold AS IS
. Also, based on current engine modifications, it will
not
pass the ridiculous California smog requirements. I only drove it part time and stored it in Arizona some of the year which made registration a breeze in Arizona. If you live in Cali, you’ll have to come up with your own plan. Most other states, you’ll be fine, or likely exempt due to the year. Do your research.
- Not
included: Pelican case on rear rack (negotiable w/ offer)
- Shipping: seller coordinates & pays.
- No joy rides. Without a $1000 refundable cash deposit, you’re not driving.
- Clean paper title in hand.
Good luck and happy Jeeping!
