I am thinking about selling my TJ project. I am considering it b/c of 2 reasons, 1) b/c I have lost all intrest in it, and I have another project that could really use the funds to be finished up, and 2) Even though I love my current truck, I have come to relise that I hate automatic transmissions, so the other portion of money would go towards buying my wife something with an auto, so I can trade my current truck for one with a manual(since this will be the last year they are selling Superduties with a manual trans).
My asking price for the project is $15,000 Firm and I am not looking for any trades. If you feel I am asking to much for an uncompleted project, I dont really care. I have close to $25,000 invested in newly installed or yet to be installed(still in the box) parts on the jeep, and will not consider selling it for any less than my asking price.
Build thread for the jeep can be seen here:

Axles:

Chevy 14 bolt rear. This axle came from the same truck as the front. Disc brake conversion, using new front 3/4 ton rotors, 1/2 truck calipers and weld on brackets from BTF. I also have new still in the box 5.38 gears and a master install kit for this axle.
I have all the nesassary fittings and T's to plumb the entire brake system in -3 AN

The jeep is about 85% done. I have all the parts to finish the jeep minus the rear driveshaft and a few minor other things. I also have a new in the box painless CJ7 "chassis" wirings that I planned to use. The list of things to finish are as follows:
build fuel cell
plumb fuel system
plumb brake lines
plumb coolant hoses/ heater hoses
plumb steering hoses
build passenger side tubular rocker guard
rear driveshaft
add seatbelt mounts to the cage
build front seat mounts( or mount them to the factory mounts)
mount steering ram
mount front swaybar
build a bezel for the gauges to fit in place of the factory cluster
install/mount wiring harnesses
mount steering cooler
build/buy front tube fenders
grille mount
install gears
Everything on the jeep has not been fully welded, and will need to be, as well as everything get painted still.
I will assist the buyer in any way I can with getting the jeep finished, or I can be convinced to finish out the jeep before the sale for additional monies. Please keep in mind I have no urgency to sell and I am dead firm on my price. I am also NOT! interested in parting the jeep out, or any trades( unless its a partial trade for a 08 or newer diesel crew cab Ford with a manual tranny, or a 04 or newer chevy tahoe(loaded) so please dont bother asking, as I will not reply
The jeep is located in Zephyhills, Fl
