Yeah, this is a nice Jeep, and it's going to go fast. I put it on Craigslist for $13k like I said, and I've been getting phone calls like crazy. If I could be open on Sundays, I'm pretty sure it would be sold.
Perhaps I'm a fool. Whenever I get a good deal on something, I don't go for the big profit and price it with everyone else. I'd rather be the cheapest, make a modest profit, and move on to the next toy. Typical retail on this would be a little over $15k
We've been doing well with Jeeps the past 2-3 years, to the point that people come to us looking for them. We're (hopefully) getting some industrial park space in Toms River in January and will be opening a Jeep specialty shop. There aren't any in the area and in talking to my Jeep buddies, there's plenty of demand. We'll be doing lifts, wheel/tire packages, performance parts, custom metal fab (roll cages, tube bumpers/fenders/doors) etc. In preparation, we're working on a few shop trucks, an XJ Cherokee set up as a street/trail rig, and an over-the-top Wrangler Rubicon, either a late TJ or early JK. Current plans are some big suspension, 37's, tube fenders and an interesting engine swap.
When we get the space, I'll be sure to chronicle the shop coming together, and the shop truck builds for NJ Stangers. We still plan on doing a lot of Mustangs there as well, and hopefully, it'll be a cool hangout/meet spot for the central Jersey NJStangers guys.,
