This rig has conquered all the toughest trails on the East Coast! Very dependable, flex monster buggy! Will trade for extreme built TJ Wrangler

Of course the tires need to go.

Nice....but what's wrong with it?

You don't often hear of people trading buggies for jeeps.

He says it's a turn key buggy. He is building a single seat buggy and wants to trade for a nicely built TJ for his son. I want to move to a different platform for wheeling, and this would work out better for me money and time wise. Only thing is that I have to pick it up in Georgia.

have you got the details worked out..
or is it still in the early planning stages?

It is definately a better rig if you are looking to step up.....just seems like the "price" is low...but hey, if he wants to trade it for a jeep, jump on it. That is a hell of a deal if it as he says it is. Personally, I am about to get rid of my jeep too. It is too nice to tear it up on the hard stuff.

[Chris_L]

still working on the details eric. Waiting for a call back from him today.

Chris, isn't this going to limit you to pretty much just Johnson Valley?

(may not be an issue for you)

Well, its been confirmed. I leave for Georgia on thursday.

Jeff, JV is all I have been doing for the past 2 years. I would still be able to tow it to moab or the rubi. I was planning on going with coils or air shocks, fuel cell, stretch job, cut the tub etc. anyway. This trade will put me closer to what I want to build, without the huge expence, time, money, time, etc.

Sounds like this will work out for you well then. Just wanted to point out that there's pretty limited pickings for green sticker (assuming it will green sticker) in the SBNF

[goodtimes]

Very cool. I hope it works well for you.
