This Geo Metro On A Wrangler Frame Is A Jeeper's Worst Nightmare
This Geo Metro On A Wrangler Frame Is A Jeeper's Worst Nightmare-September 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:37

This is a Geo Metro body on a Jeep Wrangler TJ frame—a Jeep-nut’s worst nightmare. I get it, the cars have the same wheelbase, but just because it can be done, definitely doesn’t mean it should.

Here’s the description (which incorrectly labels the year as 1996—they didn’t make Wranglers in ‘96):

This is a 96 jeep wrangler that was in an accident. It has a clear green title. Body was removed. All stock 4cylinder automatic 4wd. 77000 original miles. Has 96 geo body on it. Have full wiring harness, rad and all other parts to make run. Motor trans, transfercase, and axles all good. lot drives. Would make good off road mud toy.

$2500 OBO.

Someone please save this TJ platform from its sad, sad existence under one of the America’s crappiest econoboxes.

I Ordered A Carbon-Fiber Roof For My Porsche 996 Turbo And I Might Throw Up A Little
I bought maybe the cheapest Porsche 996 Turbo—that’s right, —on the market a year ago, and I’ve mostly been happily stacking miles on the odometer since then. I have been working on making the car my own with a period-correct set of wheels, some extra carbon trim, and a...

This Restomod 1956 Hyster Forklift Is Certified Fresh
It’s one thing for you to be forklift certified, but it’s quite another thing for your forklift to be certified badass. Most of the forklifts I’ve used at jobs have been unreliable, smelly monstrosities that have been repaired by . This restomod Hyster is definitely not like that. What’s...
