Ok, I had an almost mint 99 Cherokee, that with 101k highway miles got totalled when I got t-boned in Jan '04.. Bought that back from the insurance company and parked it, expecting to use it for parts on a replacement jeep.

In August '04, I bought another used 99 Cherokee almost identical to it (but rustier), with 120k, and drove it till at 165k I hydroplaned off the road and damaged the steering linkage and cracked the steering gearbox (very minor body damage). I was actually working toward taking this off the road anyway, because of chassis rot from 10 years of NY salt, and didn't trust towing 2 sleds on a trailer behind it.

So what I've got, is 2 good '99 Jeep Cherokee 4x4 setups, with worthless chassis, and I'm trying to figure out how much I can sell them for, without getting ripped off.

There's gotta be a couple jeep-club 4x4 guys around here, what's a good asking price?

95 - RXL -- Sale Pending --
05 - Edge 800 long track - Stayin' stock for now..

It made me more compassionate, more empathetic, more nurturing...
I FEEL LIKE I'M TRAPPED IN MY OWN WORST NIGHTMARE!!!

the average Joe doesn't want to buy a car that needs thousands in repairs. only place thats going to want it will be a junkyard they they hardly ever pay more then $500 for a vehicle, if that...

To clarify I'm not trying to sell for repair, I'm looking for someone that wants parts for their mudders (or whatever) without having to pay junkyard prices.

unless you part it your self you wont get anything, you can also make a good bit of money too. im trying to make room now so i can strip mine so i can get something out of it.
