Frame off Restore and Build Jeep
1997 Jeep Wrangler Description
This is a complete Jeep Wrangler TJ Build from the ground up. It is Titled as a 1997 due to the vin that is on the tub. All the other components are 2000 or newer. The frame was removed from a doner jeep then went completely gone over even put on a frame machine to check for straightness. Then it was sandblasted and primed and powdercoated black. The motor came from a 2000 wrangler and has 82,656 original miles on it. it's a 4.0 inline 6 with AC and a manual 5 speed transmission. This jeep is a great vehicle for everyday driving or can handle any offroading you can find. I wanted something I could drive everyday but still could handle any obstacles offroad. Almost all the parts acquired for this jeep were from my other Jeep projects in the past. The parts used are not cheap and that is why the price is higher than average, but I do not like to have mechanical failures while out on the trails so I only use good parts. Everything on this has been powdercoated even the tub, I have pictures of the build also if you are interested. below is a list of all parts added.
Body/tub is a complete rust free and dent free 2000 purchased on ebay, primed and powdercoated matte white.
