Looking forward to seeing what you do with it. I vote for keeping it stock. These XJs aren’t going to be around forever. Stock ones will be Dodo’s soon

Great video. Love the details provided and the thought process behind the plan. Thanks for sharing!

My 2000 XJ has almost twice the miles of that XJ, I'm just about to 298K mi. Nice find!

Considering I had a vehicle loss recently, even a 1k vehicle sounds like a amazing find Most places are selling them for a LOT more

Nice more xj content to come!

Nice find! Too nice to mod, really. Get the engine figured out and keep the receipts, clean up the front body issues, replace the usual sagged rear springs, detail the rest...and that should easily get $8-10k with that mileage (and the nearly flawless camel interior).

"Survive!" I see you're a Tropic Thunder fan 😏 Nice Jeep, can't wait to see what you do with it!

Keep it up

Is a new engine an option because otherwise, straight looking xj

subbed. looking for a project myself!

You should have drained the coolant and gave it an oil change

I love XJs (just got my first one), I wouldn't have passed that one up either. It's low-miles for one of those, so I wouldn't pull the whole motor, just pull and replace the head. But, I've never done that much on a 4.0 before, only SBCs and 22REs, so my opinion is skewed.

1000$?.. haha here that would be a 9000 jeep..

I love my 2000. Rust kills these jeeps. Enjoy them while you can.

One tons and LS swap it

Sell it to me pls
