My Second Best CJ Ever

by Barney
(Oregon)

When I was 28, 30 years ago, a guy ran an ad in the Eugene Oregon classified.

"Like new, 1971, CJ-5, hard top, carpet, 2000 miles, V-6 with four-speed, $1500."

I called the guy and said if the Jeep was as good as it sounded I would buy it sight unseen if he would drive it over to Bend Oregon, where I lived.

I said I would pay him cash and give him a bus ticket back to Eugene. He agreed.

Sometimes, ya just get lucky!


Larry's Comment: Why can't I find these kinds of deals Barney? You are indeed "lucky".

Oh, by the way...since this is your "second best CJ"...what is your first best CJ?
