WTF would you wanna sell that for? I will love and cherish that jeep, it will go to a good home, but I only got $2,500- in my "Jeep parts" jar and like everyone else, I know that wont cut it. I can say that its worth more than anyone is willing to pay...

sorry dude.

sad to say you will not get as much as you put in that. I would look for a serious wheeler to buy that off ya. I would love to have that but mine is pretty close to what you have +/- some stuff. Awesome jeep though. dont understand why you want a new jeep

I would say 15,000 asking price and see what happens. For some people half the fun is building the jeep.

I hate to say it, because it is a beautiful Jeep, but realistically I wouldn't expect to get more than $11.5K for it, and that's pushing it. But it is very nicely done, and I know you have a LOT more than that into it.

you could sell that for $25,000 in canada for canadian dollars

and the canadian/US currency exchange rate is?

$1 USD is equal to $.907111 CDN so if you sold it up here you would get around $22,677.7 USD, atleast thats what i jeep would go for in Alberta. as long as you had a top to brave agaisnt the elements

so your saying that if i drove my rig to canada and put a hard top on it, i'd get 22k +-? sign me up! wait..!!! it would take about 4k in gas to get from so cal to alberta canada!... hmmm decisions decisions.

For maximum return your best bet is to part it out and return it to semi-stock (maybe with a BB and 32's or something). Sell the good stuff and trade (plus cash) for stock stuff. Then sell the Jeep seperate.

Its time consuming, but really the only way to make some of your money back. Hell, stick it on e-bay and see what happens. Worst case it doesnt sell then onto plan "B".

I think up in calgary you would definatly find somone to buy it for around 25,000, you would just have to advertise it right. Jeeps are so much more expensive up here in canada its crazy

I got 12K for mine. I wouldn't expect any more. Not a lot of interest for used built jeeps. As Chris said, you can get more by parting it out. I tried ebay and it only went to 8k. I ran it twice. Ended up selling it to a local guy that was looking for something like what I had. Sold it sitting out in front of my house.

any updates? still thinking of selling?

I think about it every day! .. lol..

pros: 08 Rubi hp dana 44 front, dana 44 rear, disk brakes, air lockers, everything NEW,

Cons: gotta rebuild AGAIN.. rockers, bumpers, cage, blah blah blah.. oh and the PAYMENT!

I just started my Aircraft mechanic training. when im out and i get a good job going, i'll probably sell. for now im considering building my stroker thats just setting there looking at me. if i do that and it goes well then i'll probably just keep the jeep and buy a truck. thats my plan for now... i just wanted a feeler to see what i could get out of it if i did sell. thanks for the concern... .why are you interested?

nice jeep. looking for a more family rig and I don't want to build another for a few years (want to see my 3 year old grow up)

Did you sell this yet, and do you still want to??

depends on the day. some days i do some i dont. being a full time student right now and a full time employee that is always broke, i feel like selling it alot.
i know that soon enough my sunnier days will be hear so i will have to say that im not gonna sell.
