Vehicle Detail

Up for Auction my 1988 Jeep Wrangler. It is a 4.2 Litre 6 Cylinder Engine with an Automatic Transmission. It has only 68726 Original miles. Very Very Low especially for a Wrangler. It has the Factory Jeep Alloy wheels with New Tires. It also has the full hardtop. The Jeep is in pretty good shape for the year. It is officially an antique being 25 years old and can be registered and insured as such. It was recently tuned up and many things were replaced including the catalytic converter. It runs good. The body is in fair condition. It is a repaint and there are some rust bubbles coming through. (See Pictures) I do not see any holes. There is surface rust on the frame but no holes. The frame is solid. Being that it is a carborated model it does have to warm up or it will stall. Once it warms up you can drive no problem. I have basically just had the Jeep in the garage and only have driven it locally. It is a great Jeep to restore especially with such low mileage or just drive it as is. It is very rare to find these YJ Wranglers with such low mileage. The Jeep YJ, sold as the Wrangler, replaced the much-loved but slower-selling Jeep CJ in 1986 and was built in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, until the plant closed on April 23, 1992. Production was then moved to Toledo, Ohio, using the same plant that produced the Willys Jeeps during World War II. American Motors Corporation (AMC) had designed the new Jeep to be more comfortable on-road in an attempt to attract more daily drivers.[5] It was a new design with a wider track, slightly less ground clearance, and more comfort. The YJ still had leaf spring suspension similar to that of the CJ - however the springs were wider, and the YJs sported trackbars and swaybars for improved handling. Despite the new grille, the body is very similar to that of the CJ7, and it is interchangeable with some minor modifications. The YJ also was given a larger windshield over the CJ. The YJs are easily identifiable due to the rectangular headlights, disliked by some Jeep aficionados, and the fact that the wiper blades rest on the windshield giving this version a distinctive look. The blades rested on the windshield due to the now wider arc of the blades to clean the larger windshield. These two changes were later removed when the TJ changes came about in 1996. 632,231 YJs were built through model year 1995, although YJs were still produced into mid-1996, bringing the total production number to 685,071 units. The YJ used a 2.5 L AMC 150 I4 or optional 4.2 L AMC 258 I6 until 1991. That year, a fuel-injected 180 hp (134 kW) 4.0 L AMC 242 variant replaced the 112 hp (84 kW) 4.2 L 258 CID straight-6. The NP207 transfer case was used only for 1987 and replaced by the NP231. The only reason I am selling is to make room for the new toys in my collection.
