Default My 1992 Jeep, and the reason i found this site

This was my 1992 jeep, it was my first car and i did most of the work myself. The engine and seats are from a 1999. It was stolen in september.

These were taken in spring and summer 2005

On september 26 i got up in the morning and it was gone, and a couple days later i found the bonneville at an auction for $1900, so i bought it, with hopes the jeep would be in one piece so i could at least part it out.
The day after i got the bonneville the police called me with bad news, and they said there had been a fire and to go to the towing company that recovered it to see if i could salvage anything.

this is all that was left

omg. that poor jeep! Thats horrible enough to have it stolen..and not know its status than to actually have to see it again. the ******* scum of the earth deserves some serious crap for that.

Better luck with the bonne eh! Investing in a good security system might not be a bad move.

The thieves were never caught but the police told me that they more than likely burned it to destroy the evidence. As for the bonneville, i don't keep it in the street at night, i got a club for it, and it has the factory alarm. Once i get a job im gonna get a good alarm for it.

That would absolutely suck to see any car in that shape, let alone your own. I'm so sorry that happened. It'* really too bad they got away.

So... Did you paint the crosslace wheels black so that they'd look like the Jeep'* wheels? Both cars look amazing. You do a great job of cleaning them!
