I've been told by a RED jeep owner it must be saved.

Trash...its red, we dont need anymore stickin red jeeps in this world!!!

Just kidding

I think if you have the time and funds you should build it up, especially since you said that its in good shape and that you have the drive train and dash, etc.

I would much rather save one XJ than to have two of them go to the scrap yard!

I never like seeing XJs go to being parted out or scrapped. So, my opinion is to save it! Or sell it to someone who will.

Build it! Seems to me I run across drivetrains often but a body in good shape with doors that open AND close??? If you do decide to part it it won't last long...

I'd say build it even though it is red. Some roll on bedliner will do it wonders

Not liking the Red, but what can you do... JK JK... Def wouldn't want to see an XJ go to the boneyard if the parts and ability to get it back up and on it's wheels is there...

So far I was able to get the rejection letter (good thing) and the bond acquired. So when the bond paperwork shows up I should be able to transfer the title into my name. Then the rebuild starts. Sooooo the big question wheeler or driver and what color :smiley-taunt002:

That's obvious... wheeler so you can save the fender flares on your black one... And if not red then how about yellow

I say go big, beefy, and blue. :p

You already have a driver/trail rig. So, make it a more trail only so you can go bigger. My opinion, but its something I've been wanting to do for a while as i won't go as extreme on the terrain with Stormy.
