The body is in excellent shape. The only rust on the entire jeep is some rust bubbling up in the driver’s side fender and one small dime-sized spot on the rear corner of the hood (see pictures). The tub is made from galvanized steel (originally a 1989 Wrangler tub) and does not have any rust whatsoever. The inside of the tub is coated with bed-liner.

There are a few small issues with the Jeep: The gas gauge does not read accurately and the driver’s seat / rear seat need to be recovered. The gas gauge issue is easily remedied by installing a new gauge; the tank has a brand new sender unit & pickup. Additionally, it has a small leak on the power steering box and the engine has a small oil leak by the rear of the oil pan. Other than that, everything works as it should.

There is too much that I have done to this Jeep that I can’t list. This Jeep drives absolutely perfectly, is not squirrely and is perfectly safe going 80 mph down the highway. (I have driven this Jeep from Colorado to Maine & back.) The engine runs perfectly and the transmission shifts nice & smooth. It looks rather subtle, but with 330 horsepower it is anything but subtle when you put the hammer down.......hold on to your shorts. This Jeep gets lots of attention everywhere I go and people love how it looks like a classic modified Jeep Renegade from the 1970’s. The only reason that I am selling it is that my wife wanted me to get something a bit more child friendly, so I bought a 2005 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited. I would much rather keep this Jeep, but I love my wife more than this Jeep.

Full disclosure: This was not a Renegade model when I purchased it in 1996. It was originally a well optioned butternut yellow CJ7 with a 304 V-8 and an automatic transmission, but I converted it to what you see now. (I hate automatic transmissions.)
