First, let me say I hope I'm not violating any newsgroup charter with this,
but:
I have a 1986 CJ-7 in my basement which is for sale in part or in whole. I
would rather sell it as a whole.
It was gently rolled by my cousin, resulting in the hard top being
destroyed, and the left rear corner being crunched.
It needs a hood, front grill, radiator, fan and left front fender. Left side
of windshield is bent a little, as is the window frame of the hard left
door.
The engine is out and on an engine stand. Was going to restore, wife says
get it out. I lost the coin toss.
Windshield glass is still fine.
This was originally a 2.5 four cylinder vehicle, but converted to the 258
six.
It has a running 258 six, but it smokes and has timing chain slap noise, it
has a perfect condition 4spd manual I think it's an AX4, and a Dana 300
transfer case. I believe it has a Dana 20 rear end, but not sure of the
front. It is original.
It has relatively new custom driveshafts due to the engine swap.
All lights and gauges work, even ones in the damaged front end, which has
been stripped of the damaged sheet metal.
Interior is all there but front seats need to be recovered.
Frame is straight with no rust. It has the original white spoke mag wheels,
the fifth (spare) is bent but there.
It is an original NC vehicle, one owner, and belongs to my cousin, I am
selling it for him.
It can be had as a whole for $700 bucks. I have clear title, still in my
cousins name.
If anyone is interested, you can let me know and I'll answer any questions.

I'm sorry but I can't help but ask: how did you manage to get a CJ7 into
your basement?!

My house sits crossways on a hill. I have a garage door going into the
basement on the end.
......and, I drove it in there.

Cool, that must come in handy for storage and project-building.

Yeah, it really does come in handy, but it also "catches" everything else
that needs to be out of sight as well.

Private sales are welcomed by the Charter.
That is a decent price for a parts vehicle, especially if it isn't
rusted out.
Too bad you are so far away and in a different country. I need a frame
for mine in the worst way....

He doesn't really say where it is, just that it's "an original NC
vehicle" but from his email it sounds like he's in the Greensboro NC area.

I new he and you had the same last names, (I've talked with him before
online,) but I didn't know you were brothers!
I've seen his car, but before I knew who he was. I've never met him in
person. Tell him he needs to go to the Thursday night car show at the old
Roses store on South Main St. with his car, and let me know when he'll be
there.

Yep, he is the oldest of four, I am the youngest. Macchiarolo is a pretty
rare name at least in North Amercia, more than likely I am related to any
you might meet.
