After watching the couple of recent Jeep projects my cousin has taken an interest in owning a Jeep and learning cars. PHD chemist, smart guy, and doesn't know a whole lot about cars, but he is eager and willing to learn. Currently drives a TDI jetta he likes, so he has some interest in vehicles already beyond appliance cars.

So we picked this up for $700. Its rough, dirty, etc, but it drove home whistling like a train

Has brand new 31s on it, lifted. wrecked, and nasty interior. Drivers seat needs replaced, headliner is totally sagged and needs recovered. its a project, but he says he doesn't care how it looks and just wants something reliable. So the plan is to get it on the road. Make sure maintenance wise everything is taken care of, and anything not mechanically up to par is replaced.
