    boo, i uploaded the pre-edit before. anyway here is some more of this. I bought it in Spencer in 2017 from the original owning family. only 39k miles. I restored the paint amateurishly and did a few things, but sold it later in 2017 to a fella from Orleans. While working weeks later, I saw it on the side of 37 with a destroyed front valance due to a 70s slot mag falling off while cruising down the highway, probably way too fast. amongst other changes were shoddy body work and a small bumper conversion beginning. I can't, in good faith, ever share those photos. But it just goes to show...

    Some truth to that statement. I have decided that I'm not going to do a full body restoration and paint on my Cherokee. First off, it would probably cost $10K. Second, the vehicle is not worth $6K and third I don't want to worry about scratches if I take it off road.

    It doesn't have any rust and I got the paint pretty shiny. That is good enough for me.

    Yep. I have a flat black 66 Nova Wagon that I drive everywhere and don’t worry about people scratching it

    I’m sure this is a beautiful car but to me the chrome on old cars is what makes them stand out and unique. View attachment 232822
    I'm thinking it probably is pretty nice. But I am getting so old! I have a thing about these new fandangle headlights people are running. Those in the Chevy II aren't bad but I prefer the factory looking headlights.

    I took some funky LED's off my Cherokee that seem to be the rage with those vehicles and gave them to the boys that bought the equally funky aftermarket front bumper from me.

    I now have a set of Wagner's in place of them(and a factory bumper in place of the LED's). Though I may upgrade to Hella H4's down the road for better light but same factory look.
