Title: Viper CJ up for auction
Post by: chrisfranklin on September 11, 2006, 08:30:19 PM

Saw this Viper-Powered CJ up for auction. Then, of course, there's the auction photo showing the Jeep Magazine article done on the ride.  Have to admit, having an article written on a specific Jeep that you own is pretty cool.

If I had the money, would be a little scared off of buying the thing, but the existance of an "article" kind of changes that.  You figure that if the Viper CJ owner is ok having a magazine do a once-over on the ride, driving it, etc. that it must be a fairy solid.  Course, if, maybe,  4
+ years has gone by since the article was published, then there might be some problems to deal with on the thing.  :hump:  ("oh, yeah, now that we got the frame bent back in to shape, it drives great..."

edit: actually it shows June 2004 as the date article was published.  Article was,  "how to build a 100,000 dollar Jeep"

It's a bit of a poseur aint it?  I don't think it's worth anywhere near $40K though.
