Thinking of buying a 35 year old Jeep in california and driving it home to florida. how bad of an idea is this?
It's only SLIGHTLY better than buying a 125cc scooter and driving it across country.

vlog that shit and get some sick youtube money
Do you even have to ask, you fucking cuck?
As a Jeep guy, it really depends on how comfortable you are with your ability to do roadside repairs, up to and possibly including a drive train swap.

a stock drivetrain one? pretty bad idea especially in the middle of june, especially if it has the torqueflite.

Make friends on /o/ before you start, because you're going to need them!.
And please tell me scrambler in pic is related- I hate jeeps but that's a fun toy.

it is one of two im looking at.
those AZ grades are brutal on shitboxes. i've had more than one transmission rebuilt in kingman, AZ and I don't live in AZ.

Scramblers areamazing, do it opie

well if it makes it from needles to flagstaff you're probably in the clear. that's a 3 hour 7,000ft+ climb.. the rest is downhill or flat.

Hey that's in Lake Perris, isn't it OP? $5500?
>>15273550
yes

If you decide to do this, document it and post here. Maybe a youtube video. I'd love to see it.

the whole idea is a long shot but ill see what i can do
>>15273382
Just get a K5 there better and nicer

Why not just get one from Florida or a state above? Seems like there should be plenty of Jeeps available in that area.
How would a Jeep like that handle at highway speeds?

no scramblers

its a 4 speed so depending on gearing it might have to go slow, but as far as driving in a straight line it should be fine
