I Bought the Cheapest CJ5 on Marketplace. It's the best $1500 I've ever Spent!
DISCLAIMER: Cheapest Jeep Build Ever...the day it was finished...probably...maybe.
I payed $1500 for a running and driving V6 4 Speed Early CJ5. It's turd, but it looks cool and it's a blast to beat on.
I'm going to make it functional as cheaply as possible and then take it to the off-road park and make the side-by-side crowd jealous with mu $2000 investment. Because you don't need a $30K SXS to go have fun with your friends and family.
