Then switched insurance back onto shadowfax... looks like no snow until this weekend, 30mpg here I come. :) next out the door is the '87 xj... any takers? ;) it's a little rough on the outside, but runs well... (rock tested, no extra charge... ;) the white '48 cj-2a is getting some attention, but no takers yet... I think I'm going to take the windshield to a glass shop and have them drop it in the frame after ready the replies. ;) now, if superdawg would ever come back home... could finally sort out the fleet and get it down to two vehicles. :) john ---- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** http://JohnMeister.com **** http://wagoneers.com ** Snohomish, Washington USA - where Jeeps don't rust, they mold ** http://freegift.net *** http://greatcom.org/laws/languages.html ** - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2006 00:37:46 -0600 From: JeepNut Subject: xj: Interesting seat option? Hi all, Apologies if some of you consider this SPAM. Where to draw the line between passing along a good deal and just outright SPAMming ... well, since I'm not commercial and have no interest in this other than passing along what seems to be a legitimate and good deal... Some dude has offered up some very nice Jeep logo'd chairs from a "liquidator" at a special price to our MJ list. Apparently these are replicas of Grand Cherokee Overland seats. ooohh. aahhh. lol. There are a few who've taken delivery and say they are quite nice. And here's the kicker. He offered them up on the MJ list at straight up $120.00 plus $30.00 shipping MAX in the U.S. You can see them if you search Ebay for 4438580939. And he's getting $200+ for them on Ebay! lol... This was his mail to our MJ list...
