I am looking at a Jeep that might need the engine rebuilt. Does anyone know how to do that and willing to be paid for the work or trade for something? I am not capable of doing much more than tune ups.

I bought it. Cleaned it up a bit... $750 out the door after taxes and such. Still need a mechanic.

Nice looking SUV. Even with a new engine or a rebuild plus the $750 it looks like you got a good deal. Looks really clean Craig. Does it run okay at the moment for around town?

Drop the cash on an engine and call it a steal. Anything else wrong aside from the engine and the body damage under the passenger door (running board looks like it came down on a boulder - no big deal really)?

$750.00? Really? :shock:

Shines up nice. Good luck on the repair work.

Wow. That's a clean vehicle.

Have you thought about getting a used motor. If you PM me some specifics(VIN number), I can check my connections on prices.

You should be arrested for stealing!

I'd buy a crate motor, bolt it up, wire it up and be done with it.

Anyone a mechanic?
