well..i've always wanted a jeep. the only way to get it is to part the 7. and the seven is really causin me some stress. i didnt say that im defiantly buying it. my dad is going to see it today to meet the guy. im gonna try to go today with a friend that is familiar with these carbed 6's. it doesnt really matter to me right now that its slower. it will probly keep me from doing something stupid and worse than hitting a tree. there is no rust other than when it got tapped in the front left fender but thats it. we'll see..........

well....we have concluded that there will be no jeep. when my dad went to see it, he saw a bunch of leaked oil from gaskets. and apparently there is a little story behind it. this guy is a step dad and it was his stepdaughter's. they had recently picked it up from the bio dad's house where she had it parked for a while. her biodad has a big grudge a against him and they think he took out some anger on the jeep and may have toyed with it. so thats a negative and my mechanic who i sought some advice from, took a look at the car. he said the frame hasnt been touched or messed with and that only the braces were buckled. so on with the repairs!!!!

The only old Jeep I would ever touch would be an old 81-82 (i think that's right don't quote me on it) Jeep Scrambler!! Ha, those things look so damn weird, and some have the retro paint scheme with the thick yellow, orange, and brown stripes on beige paint!! Freakin hilarious, good luck finding one though.

if you are planning on doing any off roading dont get a jeep. they have puny axles and there motors arent that great. i used to have a 76 bronco done up for rock crawling and it was unbreakabele. they are very hard to find though. if you want to go mudding get an old chevy they have dana 60s or bigger i cant remember. i cant believe you called crazy horse a jeep that makes me sad.
