    When my kid turned 16, I got him a manual 4cyl TJ! Best thing for a kid! Easy to learn to work on, FUN and you can’t speed and you can’t text! If I had another 16 year old,I would buy it! Especially since Fred owned and worked on it (won’t sell you trash).

    When I first started getting into off-roading I had looked into a wrangler, but I couldn't find any that were cheap enough (5-8k) and they were all out of my budget. Hence why I drive an Isuzu. I've always like the yj square headlights. Looking good Fred. Hoping to see a new video with you an Dave in it soon!

    Top looks great, that dang cold weather is a pain in the rear when dealing with those dang tops. Seems like I usually wait till it's getting colder out before I put my boat top on, same deal. Just a little tip, if you're using a propane heater like that. Slide the tank into a milk crate, still be careful but it'll be a little more stable. Great video, Keep em coming, that crate thing keeps them from rolling around the back of the truck when taking them to get filled.

    Hope it finds a good home. A solid YJ is getting hard to find now. My 12 year old daughter and I fixed one up and she loved it. We recently sold it though and she will not let me live that one down. She understands, but still picks at me. I have good pictures of her driving it though. The memories are priceless. Good luck finding a new home for the YJ. It's a nice Jeep for sure.

    I’d be really interested in getting this Jeep for my great nephew for his first Jeep. It looks like a good foundation for a project Jeep for him to learn to work on. We are a Jeep family. Me and my daughter both have LJ’s and the wife has a Commander. If the price is right I’d be interested. We are in Ohio and are big fans of you and Dave. My great nephew that we have every other week visitation with is really into our Jeeps. I know he would love and appreciate having a Jeep of his own to work on and fix up by the time he turns 16. My uncle had a 95 YJ for years that inspired me to getting my first Jeep in 01’ and I’ve had a Jeep in my life ever since.

    Just a suggestion but maybe you could make a cool intro for your videos after you make it once then all you have to do is paste it into each video when your editing, it could help with brand recognition (kinda like how Cletus McFarland has a iconic intro), also edit in some overlay music in the videos it’ll help fill the silent gaps. I like all your videos though buddy 🤙 keep up the good work! I loved dirt everyday and I will definitely be watching all of yours and Dave’s videos!

    Right at 18:35 you press on the window to set it in place. The entire Jeep rocked. It shouldn't do that. The shocks appear to need replacing. Otherwise, I wish I could have it. It would make a good Jeep for a beginner, but they need to know the 4 cylinder is not for racing. The interior looks like an upgrade. If the engine is decent, and the frame is clean and rust free, I'd say a fair price should be $4-6K.

    I'm no kid but I'm from MI and would road trip that back wheeling so the way, death valley, North side of Grand canyon, Moab, Colorado, cornfields in Iowa and Nebraska... Back to the UP. I'd film it all and you could do an episode on it. My first jeep was a white 89 YJ, 2.5L, 5 speed. I put 30x9.5 Daytona radial stags on it, I remember they were like $80 a tire. This was back in 1997ish
