    Hi guys. Well, with some regret we've decided to sell our 59 CJ. We have so many other things going on and it's just been sitting. A neighbor is interested. If he doesn't take it ill post information here. I do want to take a minute to offer my appreciation for all the help and laughs I've gotten on this forum. I really like the No Politics and Religion thing. In fact, if you'll have me, I'd like to keep posting on general topics if that's ok.
    Anyhoo, thanks again.

    Mad

    it was a good move to make if the jeep was just sitting, but definitely not easy. hopefully it goes to a good home where it will be used.

    it can happen to all of us for many reasons.
    It is better than let it rust abandonned in a field.
    I sometimes imagine selling mine for health reason, it can happen.
    The idea is to get a good new master ...

    And yes, about content, nice to be in a polite word.
    I communicate sometimes on a business forum, and strangely I see members very aggressive for no reason.
    That's the bad magic of the Interet.
    This forum proves that it is possib!e to exchange staying polite and respectful.

    Thanks everyone. Whoever gets the CJ ill make sure it's going to be cared for. I kinda liked the lil feller. And since
    Fokker is allowing me to stay, you gentleman will be able to enjoy my voluminous posts about such exciting things as....
    "The Mystery of the Bike That Would Not Awaken!" Life with a KTM 450
    And "What's In The Cardboard Box ?" ...how I got a free scooter ..
    And Part 1 of 9675 of How To ( sorta) restore a 1983 Suzuki GS750 that hasn't run in YEARS !!! WOOT!
    Believe me, in no time you'll be begging Fokker to kick me off this forum.

    Wait a minute now! Hmmmm, it's starting to add up after all this time. I watched you on TV many moons ago and you don't look much older now. o_O Except for your hair color of course. :D:lol:

    Update...
    It looks like the CJ is sold to a college bound young man named Caleb. He and his father came up and checked
    it out and test drove it. Caleb loved it. I went over every issue I knew about it. Don't want any secrets and
    he knows what he's getting. I'm going to encourage him to join this forum so if a Caleb from Manton California
    pops up, please give him a warm welcome.
    And, no doubt disappointing some of you, I ain't going anywhere. Fokker said I could stay...
