5k Flash: 1989 Jeep Cherokee; Cherokeemino!
In 1984 the XJ generation Jeep Cherokee set the standard for a new era of compact sport utility vehicles (SUVs). Other manufacturers were surprised by success of the AMC designed unibody off-roader and scrambled to develop all manner of copycats. This 1989 Jeep Cherokee has been given a custom Cherokeemino rear end treatment and is for sale in a snowy part of Idaho for $3,999 buy-it-now on ebay.
The already rugged Cherokee has been lifted 3 inches and rides on some large “Wild Country” truck tires.
The back of this Cherokee has been given a HMMWV military look – complete with black ops decals and a police style light bar.
This Cherokee has the upgraded leather interior and likely kept a Suburban housewife very happy on trips to soccer practice for 200k miles before it was turned into a beast by the current owner.
If your Zombie Apocalypse budget is only $4k, we think this Cherokeemino would be a good way to go. It may have been more useful as a light duty pickup if its builder gave it a tailgate though; why not graft one in from the bed of the XJ’s pickup cousin, the Comanche?

~ needs some snow camo paint and cross-country skis
nice build, different.
. i knew Don Trun. how'd this guy get his lisence plate?
Pretty cool! Enough room in that pickup bed for your dachshund.
Very Cooooooooooooooooool. The Two-Tone Paint Scheme reminds me of a Cop-Rod but, I'm not fond of the Exposed Rivets look on the Rear Quarter Panels. It makes it look Unfinished.
I'm thinking a "Wig-Wag Flasher" on the Headlights and Tied into some Separate Amber Utility Lights on the Rear, maybe right behind the Rear Seat facing out the Wear Window.
I wonder what's lurking under the Hood?
