nice, how much you get it for?
2 grand, I think they would have taken less. Everything firewall forward is new. 35K on drop in rebuilt motor, 50 K on hoses/radiator, new exhaust, new brakes/clutch. New Steer tires/alignment. It's an old school 7.3L IDI diesel and a Spicer 5 spd.
I have 108 pages of service records going back to 1996.

What in the world are you going to do with that? 4x4?

It's going to have the front built out as an RV and the Jeep is getting loaded in the back. Can also tow a rig on a trailer and split fuel costs. Going to run it on waste motor oil/diesel mix.

Decomissioned uhaul. Holds 800 dead hookers.

14ft?

pffft, 14 ft is weak. 26 in the box, 32ft bumper to bumper.

Make it Hellaflush :peace:

Bag it dude.

It's got air bags, that's what the big compressor is for.

gonna put his 6th gen in the bak, his own car hauler

Mobile repair shop maybe? really popular out here

Canam party van!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

all of the above. Plans involve the third seats from some chrysler minivan so I can can have seating with seatbelts in the back that's removable/reconfigurable. TV w/ Antenna, fridge, microwave and rangetop. It will be my do all party/tow/work rig. Imagine when I drive it to the home depot to get pavers for my retaining wall project...

Here's some that have been done, mine wil have a unique interior layout, but will look like these on the outside with the doors/windows.

My favorite exterior:

look on about page 5 or 6 for exterior pics on that one.

No one else has done seating in the rear, and I plan on doing a pass through from cab to box in place of the rear window so the driver can talk to the passengers back in the box.

Is there room to have seats that can swivel like in some travel vans/RV's?

yeah, it's nearly 8 ft wide inside and I'll have 10-12 ft of sapce in front of the Jeep and behind the kitchen counter. Those are pricey seats though. I can get thrid row minivan seats for like $25 a piece, cut out as many of the mounts from vans at the pick n pull as I want and put them into the uhaul.

THe plan is two 3 person third row seats that face forward while driving, and then can be moved to the sides when parked to be used as benches for the table. Hell, people could even sleep on them if I find some long enough. The area above the cab will be built out as part of my cabinet install so a queen sized bed will fit.

Like the plans.

Would like to see a project thread as well, once you get things going.
