If I thought the sale price would be what I have into my cj the men bringing coats with wrap around sleaves would appear. I have had offers up to 25K and that isn't enough. In terms of smiles per adventure " Empty Pockets" is priceless.

Doubtful mine would sell for what I've invested in it - not counting labor/time of course. I estimate I have about $40K in the Jeep and the matching trailer combined now. Perhaps it would fetch that waiting for the right buyer, perhaps not. I do see some CJs with similar stuff online in that range, but not many. Of course it's well worth that to me. Echoing NP435's "smiles per mile" makes it priceless.

That’s not to bad. My buddy got a Larado in 84 loaded at around 15K. He was not from here, but had a good job. He thought America was great. He borrowed money for a down payment plus the loan money. He could do none of that where he came from. 2 weeks later I went and got my first loan for my Jeep. I had no credit. They wanted a co signer and I didn’t want to ask my brother. So I asked if 3K down would work and the next thing I knew I was driving a brand new Jeep also.
