Just picked up a 98 Jeep Grand Cherokee for $100
« on: July 19, 2010, 09:58:22 PM »
It was involved in an accident and the owner wanted nothing more todo with it...  I offered $100 cause the tires alone are worth that!  I'll post pics when I take them...

Its got 99,122 miles so I might keep it and fix it or part it out.....

What would rHMT do?

Look at wholesale book value, look at market price for parts, DO WORK.

Headlights, corner lights, hood and driver side fender...  I may need to get the steel bumper under the bumper cover that is still good if I cant flat rate that shit by pulling it out with the flat bed....

I'm not a big fan of those but they aren't bad vehicles, just not anything I ever took a shine to.  Whether you part out or fix, you'll make some money.

would this vehicle be a good tow vehicle to trailer my car to the track and back monthly plus serving its daily duties? there is one in great body condition with a bad torque converter noticed the new one sitting in the back, could get it for $300, but I am worried about future issues because domestics dont last.

One of the locals whose Supra hasn't seen the light of day in YEARS campaigns both one of those and an '08 or '09 model.  There are numerous videos of him roasting the local "drift" crew up and down mountain roads.  That particular bodystyle is pretty solid.
