[AMC-List] A Jeep truck for me! (maybe...)

[farna@xxxxxxx]

Going to go look at a J-10 w/258 and four speed tomorrow. All I know is it "runs good" and isn't rusted out, and is a short bed. Asking price of $1200 OBO probably means the engine runs but is on its last leg, and the body might not be rusted out but might be a little on the beat up side. Same guy also has a tired 4.0L Comanche with blow-by (could just be the PCV hose...) and pops out of either 4th or 5th gear (I forget which - indicates a synchro is bad though). Trans is supposedly the AX-5 or 15, guy deals in Jeeps and says it's definitely NOT the Peugeot trans. Wants $650 as is for that one. Have to run it by the wife, but don't think she'll complain for $1K. Will need/want a truck when I get to SC anyway. One of these I'd drive down in early November with a load of "stuff" that needs to go and take a bus back. Hmmm.... haul the bike down and drive it back? Probably to cool in November!! Might haul the bike down and leave it too... less to move in June! Plus if I did brea!
 k down 
it would be better to have the bike than the riding mower (which I don't really need here). But if you see someone driving an older red riding mower down the shoulder of I-95 between D.C. and S.C in early November, please stop and see what happened!! ;>
