My Daughter just got her license and needed a car to drive. After searching for something cheap being a single father funds are low, we found this 97 jeep wrangler with only 80,000 miles on it sitting in a field. It was owned by a older gentleman that passed away, left it to his daughter that drove it until the transmission went out of it, with not being able to afford to fix it ,it sat for 10 years. After looking at it and noticed it was very clean no rust anywhere , frame was prefect with factory paint still on it, so it was a must buy. I bought it for $1000. towed it to the house, and started going through it. started by going through the fuel system cleaning out that nasty 10 year old fuel , new injectors ,pump sending unit,then the brake system pads rotors wheel cylinders drums and brake lines, then the cooling system, new radiator water pump and thermostat. I put in a reman transmission and usually tune up stuff, also a sye kit and new drive shafts , installed a 4′ lift with new wheel bearing and hubs, installed some 33×12.5 tires , new soft top, buffed out the paint and now my daughter is a very happy girl that gets a lot of compliments. We love driving it on the beach.
