Re: This is not a forsale add but..
not another one thinking of selling! dont do it henry! I think modded SJs usually get to a certain point and then the price hits a cap no matter what else is fitted unfortunatley
I would say in the higher bit of the £1500-£2000 region maybe more?
I don't think I would get 25% of what i've put into mine if i ever sold it so i'm just not going to sell it! ever!

Re: This is not a forsale add but..
I dont want to sell it, i love it and ive grown up with it. But i might have to! I could build the panda then sell but wheres the fun in that? plus it wont be worth much.
The parts owe me about 2K including buying it mots ect. But if you put hours into it, especially if the work was to be done in a garage then it must be 10K plus?

Re: This is not a forsale add but..
I'd say just garage it. You'll not get back what it ought to be worth after what you've put into it, plus you'll regret it.
There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

You should definitely keep hold of that one Henrey. You would surley want to buy another in the future, and you'd be lucky find another one as good as that one.

I know what you are all saying, and ive said it to people before. And i know that i wont get back what ive put into it. But as said, when it bites you got to do something about it.
I might just spray it with a film of oil, put it right at the back of the shed and throw a cover over it... Then i might sell the V dub bus instead

I say just hide it away until you get round to sj-ing again, mines locked away in the garage, after all you will never make your money back, and if you return to the hobby in years to come (as you probably will) you will have to do it all again and spend money on what you have already spent it on!
as for your picture, your sj does look good in it but doen't it annoy you that the sill trim cover isn't level with the cage?
