December 10, 20196 yr 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sahara. Hasn't run for years and is parked under cover at one of the ranches. Hunters are asking about buying it and I have no idea how to price it. When it broke down I think it was something very simple, like replacing the starter. Having sat for years there will be some fuel tank / fuel system stuff that will have to be replaced. I've seen these in working condition for 5-8k? Any ideas? Thx
December 11, 20196 yr Are you trying to get the most money or get someone to take something that hasn't run for years? $500-1K to not deal with it seems good to me. Edited December 11, 20196 yr by ShaggyBevo RIP
December 12, 20196 yr Author Thx for responses. The hunters are asking for the price and no offers have been made yet. On the one hand I'd probably take $1000 to not have to deal with it... on the other these jeeps have high resale and I think this one will run again without breaking the bank. Gamble for me.. gamble for the hunters I guess.
December 12, 20196 yr i did KBB at 75000 and the base equipment and 'fair' condition. private party sale is a range of $3556 to $5419. Just because it's not running, it might just be a $500 repair or a fuel pump. That's all stuff I'm guessing you know? I agree with your sentiment in the OP that the price is what they'll give you to get it off your hands, but you don't want to short yourself either.
December 12, 20196 yr fix to get it running might be $500 but if it hasn't been moved in years the rubber is completely rotten. needs new belts, hoses, tires, gaskets, bushings, struts, etc.
December 13, 20196 yr say $2000 and act like you won't take a penny less. I might consider it to turn it into a beach vehicle but then I saw your user name... that's a long drive from Austin.
December 13, 20196 yr I’d give you $1500 sight unseen. Don’t undervalue it, someone will take it off your hands without much fuss for a good price.
December 17, 20196 yr Author I really appreciate the responses and as I was contemplating the least I'd take... the hunters up and offered over $2500 as-is, where-is. And I'm pretty sure.... I took it. Thanks for all the input 🤘
