I hate my job. Washing cars in the cold flipping sucks. My feet are already wet. Only reason i'm warm right now is because i'm wearing coveralls. The building i'm in can't hold heat for ****. Oh yeah did i mention the water is cold as ****.

Been there done that. Me and my brother ran some car wash/detail shops for years. The one shop I worked in was in a parking garage in downtown Baltimore. You know the kind where the sides are completely open? So as far as a building not being able to hold heat...LOL. There was NO heat!

Did a little solo run at the watershed today. Didn't do anything crazy mostly cruised and saw some sights and hike on foot a little.

I love this damn zj to death. After ruining barney, I'm so much better to this one.

Did have some thoughts, I'm perfectly happy how it sits I have no need for more lift and huge tires. BUT the question is do I still do other stuff to it?

For example I have and IRO track bar and IRO adjustable lowers sitting around. I have stuff for a cb sitting around. I would also like to add maybe a little beefier steering. Like the kit crown has.

I have no intentions of wheeling it like I did barney, but I still want it nice.

First I have maintenance things to attend to as well.

For right now I really don't care about working on the xj. I've even considered fixing a few minor things and selling it.

So you shouldnt eat when you get here then right?

And programbo that sucks.

I really just want to grt out because for what we do we are reslly underpaid. Other detail people are easily making double what we do. All i can say is we make **** shine.

Erin, do you plan on wheelig the ZJ at all? Like up at RC? If so then I would do those mods you want (after maintaining it). The ZJs can be built pretty badass

I would stick with if it aint broke dont fix it. Also, money is hard to come by for us college students so don't spend it all on the ZJ. If everything is good on the ZJ just leave it.

Yes I do agree with that. Was just thinking since I have the stuff sitting around... Why not ya know?

Now with the xj I dunno I'm almost over the whole "muddin/offroad" thing. But I do enjoy a stroll through woods.

I think if I fix what's wrong with it, and can sell it for the price I want, I will sell it. And hold out for another one or get the zj something nice. Think barney was my whole reckless do whatever I want because I got my license phase lol.

Time will tell lol.

He finds a blower motor and calls the closest CF member owned emergency garage. New blower motor installed and blowing by 9:30 pm. Ask me how I know.
