Vehicles, you can fix?

Update on the XJ Cherokee. Replaced the 3 O-ring seals around the oil filter, new muffler, lots of cosmetic items. The one I bought had wiring for a heated rear window, but no button or connections, so I found a wiring diagram and installed a button and now I have a heated rear window. Need new side mirrors, and would like to replace the aftermarket rims with old factory rims, or new rims that fit the look of it.
Just around $500 in all the parts up to this point, depending on rims, but looking at a grand total of about $750 to completely resurrect it, so a grand total of $2,450, and so many enjoyable nights out there working on it with my son.
 
Agree. You can fix or replace almost everything on an xj with just a basic set of wrenches and a screwdriver.
Bullshit...you need metric set, standard set, and and a set of torqx for the body bolts...but yes easy work on..I have a 90 YJ with the 4.2 and carb...modern tractors are harder to work on. My '73 Bronco is pretty easy too and it's all standard bolts.
