IMO, Mid 80s Jeeps are kind of like mid 80s Harleys.  They look impressive, but they break a lot and just aren't nearly as good as a real proper SUV like, say, a Land Cruiser or a Bronco.(though Broncos are known to eat xfer cases every 30-40K)

Something like this might be a good deal, since restored they are worth decent money.

I checked near you in Utah and found nothing.  But there are tons of rigs in Nevada...  I *think* this is manual... hard to tell.

Old Fords are good potential platforms as well, mostly because they are cheap to fix.

Looks clean - haggle some and enjoy.
