Vehicle Description
An awesome off-road attitude, some nice upgrades, and a value price
come together on this 1988 Jeep Wrangler YJ. It makes for a true
go-anywhere 4x4 that leaves the door open to your imagination.
The pusher bar with big off-road lights really sets a nice tone for
this Jeep. The polished metal even goes nicely with the iconic
grille. It gives this the look of style and substance. You see that
elsewhere, like on the stylish 15-inch lattice wheels with rugged
Remington Mud Brute tires. The tan top and side doors have the
crispness of a newer investment. And it looks nice against the
distinctive gray/green paint. This color still cleans up well, but
it's far from perfect, so you'll never think twice of getting this
Jeep dirty. Plus, there are some nice upgrades, like side steps and
trailer hitch on the rear.
Inside is more of that attractive tan, and the newer camo seat
covers are a nice touch for when this Wrangler is open to nature.
And speaking of open to the world, this has the features you really
appreciate in a YJ when the top is off, like the metal half doors
and a more comprehensive roll bar w/padding. There are nice
upgrades like an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input, grab handles, cup
holders, and provisions for R134a air conditioning (compressor will
need servicing.) There are a couple of areas that will need to be
addressed, including the driver's seat. But with the value price
and a very large aftermarket, this shouldn't be much of an issue.
These Wranglers arguably had the best dash layout of any
generation. You have a tilt steering column to get a good view of
the speedo and tach. Then the rest of the gauges are spread wide
across the center to remind everyone that this was a serious
machine.
Under the hood is a 4.2-liter inline-six that was derived from the
tough-as-nails AMC line of motors. It shows the right signs of good
maintenance, so it fires up and runs with the kind of confidence to
live up to its legacy. Plus, there are more recent major
investment, like a refurbished five-speed manual transmission and
new brakes. It's a true go-anywhere 4x4 Jeep with a two-speed
transfer case. And the power steering and power brakes with discs
up front makes it nice for on-road excitement, too.
This is a complete and distinguished Wrangler offered for quite an
obtainable price. Don't let this deal slip away, call today!
