Replace my jeep...
 

with this?

I need opinions. I'm starting to get sick of my Cherokee. I usually dont hang on to cars this long anyway, so I'm really getting bored :lol: . I dont want to spend more than $2500 and ex-cop cars are pretty damn cheap and they're rwd with LT1 power. anyway, let me know what you all think of my idea.

turbo the jeep instead??? :rofl:

EDIT FROM MY ORIGINAL POST TO EXPLAIN WHY.

Go for it, sell the jeep, get the cruiser, get the cheapest maaco paint job. Fix everything wrong with it, Probably the optispark.. then maybe look out for a cheap Thirdgen, in case your intrested in a burgandy gta heres a link to one Under $1000 http://www.bargainnews.com/viewad.cf...&TheDealer=873 drive the caprice till the next fbody is fixed then sell the caprice.

Was that serious enough?

Get a neon

guys, I would like serious input here, thanks.

buy it! 9C1 caprices own, just peel all the chrome off and throw some rims on it and you basically have an impala, only difference is the cop cars got the green heavy duty raditator hoses, otherwise the 9C1 and impala suspensions are the same:)

go for it!!!

The only bad part is cops beat the ever living **** out of those cars. I used to work for our town DPW and the mechanic was trying to fix stuff on them everyday because they were run so hard. Just expect things to break when you buy it its probably not going to be a really reliable car.

Man, Ian I didnt think the news I gave you today was that devastating....

id say go for it but like said above they beat the living **** outta those cars

Chit, if you don't buy that ex cop car I just might! It's less then 2 g, and you are a mechanic, so get cracking on it! Then I will be able to mooch a ride from you! :)

it wasn't, I was thinking about 9C1's all day :lol: . BUT, you did break your end of the bargain :?

and they cant be that unreliable, I saw a lot on Ebay with 190K miles and more that were still chugging along.

oh no no no, mooching only works one way :wink:

you better not buy it cause if you do the mustang/camaro comments will never stop :twisted:

My wife would drop kick me right in the face if I come home w/ any more cars, so ya don't have to worry about me buying the copper car. Plus I need to sink a few more bux into the Caddy.
SO GO BUY IT!!!

anyone know if those are posi rear cars? jon knows how i feel about those lt1 b-bodies :)

jake, if I buy one, you should buy one too and we can cruise around together 8)

Doo eeet!! I agree with the beat-downs, but worth it. At least ill know where to get the 2wd spindles for my 72 so I can do that 1LE brake swap....

I say go for it Ian. The few 9C1 cars that I have seen have been 3.42 posi cars....

And if not, I think Tim still has a 3.42 posi from a Caprice sitting in "the garden" :)

ex-cop cars have potential.

if you do decide to buy one, how much are you looking to get for your jeep?

check the classifieds 8)

Buy a white 96 Camaro SS!

as far as miles go, most old cop cars go on to serve as taxi's which get drivin up into the 300k miles range in cities where pot holes are bigger then fbodys

go for it ian i use to own 2 ex cop cars a 92 carprice and a 96 crown vic and dam all you need is to give it tlc and and it will last forever

buy it, just dont make it a damn impala ss wannabe poser car, clones arent cool

Do yuu know if ANY cop cars are stick?
